How this market compares
Skip the generic national blog post — this page is the Port St. Lucie Concrete slice of OEWS May 2025. Mean hourly pay here sits about 10% below the national OEWS mean.
Mean Concrete pay here is $25.94/hr — national rank 268 of 457 areas that publish this occupation. Inside FL, that is rank 5 of 23 published areas. Hourly wages stretch from $18.46 (10th percentile) to $33.98 (90th). That $15.52 gap is why two bids on the same scope can still look honest.
OEWS counts about 290 Cement Masons and Concrete Finishers jobs in this area. Nationwide that occupation is about 206,170. Sample jobs: Concrete Patio Slab mid estimate $1,679 here vs $1,819 U.S. (8% below); Concrete Driveway (section) mid estimate $4,062 here vs $4,398 U.S. (8% below).
Nearby / same-state markets worth checking: Punta Gorda (about the same, $25.93); Naples-Marco Island ($25.85, 0.09 lower); Crestview-Fort Walton Beach-Destin ($26.12, 0.18 higher).
Local tip: Local code, permit fees, and how busy crews are this month move numbers as much as wage rates do.
