Read per resident, the top of the table does not move: other home service, landscaping and HVAC are Spartanburg's three densest trades, and flooring its thinnest.

A median hourly wage is published for electrical, HVAC, plumbing and roofing in Spartanburg. Of those, electrical pays the most and roofing the least.

Cleaning, flooring, landscaping, other home service, painting, pest control and pool carry no wage figure for Spartanburg, so those rows are blank rather than filled from a neighbouring occupation.

Electrical carries Spartanburg's largest published employment count: the occupational series counts 600 workers across the metro, and this site publishes 44 electrical records here. The two count different things, one an occupation across every employer and the other the businesses on this site, so they stand side by side rather than one against the other. HVAC, plumbing and roofing follow it.
