Source types: BLS OEWS is the US Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics — an annual survey estimate of what an occupation pays across all employers in the area, public and private, so it describes the role rather than any one employer, and it carries no total-compensation figure because the survey measures wages only. State portal and transparency portal are a government's own published salary site; open data is a machine-readable dataset released by the jurisdiction; FOIA response and records request are documents disclosed in answer to a request; agency report and budget document are official publications that list pay. "Retrieved" is when we read the source. "Verified" is when the row was last re-checked against it — an unverified row has not been re-checked since it was ingested.
