Honest numbers, and where they come from

Pay is the May 2024 BLS wage survey for the San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX metro, with Texas or U.S. figures when the local number is not published. Job outlook is the BLS 2024 to 2034 national projection. Career descriptions, tasks, and interest profiles are O*NET. Programs are pulled from the Alamo Colleges program index.

When a number is missing we say so rather than estimate it. Read more about the data.
