What does the Nebraska data actually show?

Resident earnings vary more inside Nebraska than most people expect. In management, Omaha residents report a median of $80,668 against $70,064 in Lincoln. Same state, same occupation group.
Why do several cities share one wage figure?
Because BLS publishes wages by metropolitan area, not by city. Here each city happens to sit in its own area. A page that stopped there would say the same thing about every city in the metro, so each one also carries Census figures for that specific place: how many residents work in each occupation group and what they earn. Those do differ city to city, often by a wide margin.
