A filing is counted here by its worksite, not the employer’s headquarters. A company based elsewhere that places someone in Kentucky appears on this page; a company headquartered in Kentucky that places everyone out of state does not. State medians also mix occupations, so a state that skews toward one high-paying profession will look richer than its cost of living implies — compare within an occupation for a fairer read.
