High tech, high wages.
San Antonio residents working technology jobs make more than double the median pay for all occupations, according to a new report by Austin-based data company Spanning Cloud Apps LLC.
The median annual wage stands at $81,170 for computer and math occupations, well above the $36,130 mark for all jobs.
Alas, fewer Alamo City workers are taking advantage of the pay premium than in other metros.
The study found that the San Antonio-New Braunfels region ranked No. 42 out of 53 large metro areas for the share of employment in computer and math occupations. Just 2.7 percent of area workers (28,220 people) are employed in tech jobs.
