Locker Room, Coatroom, and Dressing Room Attendants Salary and Pay

The national wage ladder (BLS OEWS, May 2024)

Percentiles answer the question a single average cannot: where would a given Locker Room, Coatroom, and Dressing Room Attendants offer sit among all 14,960 workers doing this job? The survey top-codes at $239,200+ and withholds unreliable cells, shown as n/p in the table.

Employment and concentration

BLS counted 14,960 Locker Room, Coatroom, and Dressing Room Attendants jobs in May 2024, which is 0.01% of all U.S. employment in the survey. Work is most concentrated in Hawaii, where the location quotient is 4.24, meaning the occupation holds 4.24 times its national share of local jobs. California employs the most people outright, 3,110 of them, and the three largest state employers together account for 37.4% of the national total.

One in ten workers in this field earns $23,530 or less, and one in ten earns $50,790 or more, so the top-to-bottom ratio is 2.2 to 1 and the annual gap is $27,260. The mean ($36,490) versus median ($34,800) comparison shows a right-skewed ladder where senior and specialist roles lift the average in this occupation.

The occupation in context

Ranked against all 826 published occupations, Locker Room, Coatroom, and Dressing Room Attendants stands number 609 by employment and number 793 by median pay. Inside its own major group, Personal Care and Service Occupations, the group median wage is $37,320 across 32 detailed occupations, so this occupation pays 7% less than its group median, and it supplies 0.5% of the group's 3,159,920 jobs. In 12 of the 35 states with a published median, the state median beats the national median of $34,800, which is the single best quick test of whether this occupation's pay is set nationally or locally: a high count means local markets regularly outbid the national figure.

Metropolitan areas: where the jobs and the pay sit

Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA is the largest metro employer with 1,690 jobs, 11.3% of the national total. The first table ranks metros by employment; the second ranks them by mean pay among metros with at least 500 jobs in the occupation, because a three-person metro can top a pay table by accident.

Largest metro employers

Highest-paying metros (500+ jobs)

At the other end, Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI posts the lowest mean pay among metros with at least 500 jobs, $30,650 a year, against $47,230 in Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA. A gap that size between two metro labor markets is why the same occupation title can fund two very different budgets in two different cities.

What the median pay looks like as a budget

Budget arithmetic on the median: $2,900 a month before tax, $1,338 biweekly, $669 weekly. Moving from the 25th percentile ($29,120) to the 75th ($41,530) is worth $12,410 a year, which is the realistic size of the experience and specialization premium inside this occupation. To turn any of these gross figures into spendable money, run them through the paycheck calculator; to weigh an offer against your current role, use the salary calculator; to test a raise against prices, the raise vs inflation calculator.

To place a real offer: a salary of $38,280 would sit between the median ($34,800) and the 75th percentile ($41,530), inside the top half but outside the top quarter of this occupation's ladder. An offer at the 25th percentile, $29,120, is $5,680 under the median, the typical size of the discount attached to entry-level or low-cost-market postings in this field.
