It is 0.52 times the median household income of $83,011. A household often has more than one earner, so a single salary at this level goes further than the ratio alone suggests.
Prices in Oregon run at 103.4 against a national average of 100, with rents at 108.6, so $43,480 here buys about what $42,066 buys at national average prices.
The top tenth earn $50,960 a year or more, against $35,670 at the bottom tenth.
Experience, specialism, employer and the part of Oregon someone works in all move a wage inside that range; the survey reports the spread, not the reason for it.
