How we price this for Omaha

We take each national base range and multiply it by Omaha's local index of 0.94:

local range = national base × 0.94

The index blends the metro's wage relativity (Omaha metro wages for appliance technicians (BLS OEWS occupation 49-9031)) with the BEA Regional Price Parity for Omaha, held to a sane band. Parts ship at national prices, so only the labor and overhead share moves with the metro. These localized estimates are cross-checked against 4 locally published service fees in the observed stat above — figures we show verbatim, never run through the index. The full method and source vintages are on the methodology page.
