What our data shows for Physical Therapists
RoleHue publishes 27 salary records for Physical Therapists, across 2 cities. Weighted by how many records each city contributes, the band runs from $89,125 at the 25th percentile to $109,422 at the 75th, a spread of $20,297 around $96,727. Each of those three figures averages the city-level percentiles rather than ranking the pooled records, and weights each city by how many records it holds, so the cities we hold most data for pull them hardest. Measured against that $96,727 figure rather than in dollars (21% of it), that spread is tighter than 76% of the roles we cover.
Brooklyn, NY carries the highest median we hold for the role at $100,000; New York, NY the lowest at $94,477, a gap of $5,523.
Most of the evidence on this page sits in New York, NY, with 16 of the 27 records we publish for this role (59%), so the weighted figures above lean on a single metro more than on the country. No city here reaches 25 records, the depth we treat as our threshold for calling a city median well evidenced, so every city median on this page rests on fewer records than that.
