Understanding H-1B Location Data
How is work location determined?
The work location on an LCA represents where the H-1B worker will primarily perform their duties. For remote positions it's typically the worker's home office address. For on-site roles, it's the employer's office or client site.
Metro area considerations
Large metro areas often have multiple cities listed separately (e.g., San Jose and Sunnyvale in the Bay Area). When evaluating a job market, consider nearby cities as well.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which cities have the most H-1B jobs?
The top H-1B job markets are New York, NY (199,179 filings), Seattle, WA (84,943), and San Francisco, CA (77,495). These metros have large tech sectors and diverse employer bases.
Which city pays the highest H-1B salaries?
Bay Area cities (Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Menlo Park, San Francisco, San Jose) typically offer the highest H-1B salaries, with medians often exceeding $170,000. Seattle and New York also rank highly.
What data is available for each city?
Each city page includes: median salary, salary distribution, top employers in the area, wage level breakdown, pay spread among top sponsors, and comparison to national averages.
Are remote H-1B jobs included?
LCA filings are based on the primary work location. Remote positions are typically filed under the employer's headquarters or the worker's home office location.
