California Regional Survey Results

The tables below present summaries of the data collected within California, broken down into four geographic regions. The survey data included in each table represents the data collected from the survey respondents within each specific region, as presented above in the listing of California Survey Agencies. The purpose of breaking down the data regionally is to identify any significant differences between statewide and regional survey results, which may be attributed to regional cost of living or other geographic factors that could affect the State of California's relative Total Compensation position in the regional labor market. Detailed survey results by benchmark classification, by region, by survey respondent can be found in an appendix to this report (Regional Data).

Note that the regional State of California Total Compensation for some benchmark classes may differ from the Total Compensation reported in the tables above that present the summary of statewide survey results. This stems from the fact that the State of California offers a number of geographic pay differentials to several of the benchmark classes, typically to enhance recruitment and retention of employees within a particular region. This additional compensation appears as the "Regional Adjustment" in the detailed survey results presented in the Regional Data appendix.

Also note that, for some benchmark classes, breaking down the data regionally reveals few matches reported by respondents for those classes in a particular region. For example, there are only two reported matches for the Park Ranger benchmark class in each of the Northern California, Bay Area and Central California regions. In those cases caution should be taken in reviewing and interpreting the data.
