— in Rank: places with ≥ have no rank by median pay, because BLS publishes only a lower bound for them and other states have exact medians at or above it. They are listed alphabetically, below the last of those exact medians.
≥: BLS publishes only a lower bound for this median. Its adjusted figure is a minimum, so it has no adjusted rank (—).
