Because noone wants to go there, indicated by the low sample size per area. Could use some confidence intervals as well to show the range. Otherwise great data!

Also note that suburbs usually pay better than cities probably due to larger workforce and more variables that could skew data (eg more per diem rph and etc); see Boston vs Worcester or Chicago vs surrounding areas.

Interesting that the median wage is above the mean. Not a lot of high outliers I guess.

You do realize there is nothing in Northern Wisconsin.

Cheeseheads. 😀

I think it's beautiful up there. I dunno if the pay is worth braving the long winters though. I'm too used to Texas weather now.

These statistics are clearly wrong, unless the decimal was misplaced on the Alaska line.

I also don't see any bonus next to it to cover my igloo and sled.

Pharmacists with more seniority who have moved to the suburbs and want to work close to home-> higher wages in the burbs. Plus the customers in the suburbs are ruder...at least that has been my experience (yes I knwo that does't affect pay)
