ALBUQUERQUE IS A GOOD PLACE TO BE AN ARCHITECT OR AN ENGINEER, BUT NOT A LAWYER…AT LEAST WHEN IT COMES TO PAY. THE ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL REPORTS THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS IS OUT WITH A STUDY ON WAGES AS OF MAY OF 2016.
IT SHOWS THE PAY FOR AN ARCHITECT OR AN ENGINEER IN THE DUKE CITY IS WELL ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. BUT THOSE IN THE LEGAL PROFESSION MAKE 30-PERCENT LESS THAN THEIR COUNTERPARTS NATIONWIDE.
