Montana One of Best-Paying States for Recent College Grads
A new survey from Self.inc reveals that Montana could be the Treasure State for many new college graduates, with only one other state in the U.S. having a higher average pay for recent grads.
Using the latest earnings data from the U.S. Census Bureau, and cost of living data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, the report showed recent graduates working full-time in North Dakota had the highest median earnings in the country at $53,751.
Montana is the second best-paying state in America for recent grads, after adjusting for the cost of living, with a median earning of $51,337. Compare that to New Mexico, which is one of the lowest-cost states to live in, who had a median earning of $36,224 per year for recent college graduates.
