What statisticians make
Median
$105,650
First job

Top tenth
$174,050
The national median is $105,650 a year, and the bottom tenth start near $64,000. Statisticians have their own line in the federal wage survey, so this is a clean match to the job title rather than a wider group. Drug companies and tech firms pay at the top, universities and state agencies near the bottom.
