California was the top-paying state for clinical laboratory scientists in 2009, with an average salary of $35.27 per hour, or $73,350 per year. Nevada ranked second at $67,550 per year. The California average pay rate for this profession was about 24 percent higher than the nationwide average of $55,620 per year. The middle 50 percent in California were making $30.07 to $40.95 per hour, or $62,540 to $85,170 per year.
For example, while the median pay for RNs in California is $46.38/hour, or about $96,470/year, RNs in the modest 51,000-resident city of Watsonville, CA, typically make more than $65/hour, or about $136,570 per year.hile some lower-paying states average in the $20s for per-hour pay, stats show that some areas within the top ten highest paying states also average as low as $26.75. This raises the question that these lists may not be averaging just RN pay into these salary numbers.
