PITTSBURGH — The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ data that lists the top 25 highest-paying jobs throughout the Pittsburgh region has changed quite a bit since it was last released.

The most recent data available from the BLS is from May 2021.

As in previous lists, occupations in the medical field dominate most of the newest list. Some occupations, though, both in the medical field and in other fields, are new to the most recent list, and some occupations were pushed out of the top 25.

Many occupations saw substantial annual mean wage increases between 2020 and 2021. For example, the average annual pay for general internal medicine physicians rose from $262,340 in May 2020 to $303,520 in May 2021.
