A share above 5% signals a meaningful regional cluster; below 1% usually means the state is not a structural fit for this industry at scale.

Wage benchmarking is where state-level data earns its keep. The average annual compensation for Educational Services employees in District of Columbia is $58,414/yr, versus a national average of $56,181/yr. District of Columbia pays above the national average for this industry, which usually reflects higher skill concentration, union density, or regional cost of living.

Profitability data is only available at the national level because the IRS Statistics of Income program does not publish state-level margin breakdowns. The national net profit margin for Educational Services is not reported, and while margins do vary by state, the direction of variance usually follows labor cost and establishment size — both shown above. For a complete picture, pair this state-industry view with the Educational Services national page (entity structure, SBA lending, sub-industries) and the District of Columbia overview (top employers, payroll dispersion across industries).
