How Does Pittsburgh Rank In US Markets?

Pittsburgh has always remained resilient against national job market slumps, but how does it rank among the highest paying job markets?
The Business Journals has come up with a list of the 100 highest-paying job markets -- and Pittsburgh is about halfway down the list. 
An On Numbers analysis of the annual pay of all employees in major markets ranks Pittsburgh at No. 48 with an average salary of $44,270. That's well below No. 1 on the list, San Jose, Calif., which had an average annual pay of $69,670, as well as the highest-ranked region in Pennsylvania, Philadelphia ($50,310). It also was slightly behind another Pennsylvania metro region, $44,750 for No. 42 Harrisburg. 
Here are the top 10 highest-paying markets for employees in all jobs. 
San Jose, $69,670
Washington, $63,750
San Francisco-Oakland, $62,680
Bridgeport-Stamford, Conn., $60,720
Boston, $58,940
New York City, $56,940
Seattle, $55,890
Durham, N.C., $54,500
