What the wage survey says
Median for the group
$80,730
Bottom tenth
$48,220
Top tenth
$133,720
The median for this group is $80,730 a year, the bottom tenth earn $48,220 or less and the top tenth $133,720 or more (2025 federal wage survey). Read it carefully: the federal survey has no category for code enforcement officers, so they are counted inside Compliance Officers, a broad group that also includes bank and environmental compliance work. So this is not a figure for code enforcement on its own.
