Most Pacific County workers saw only modest wage growth this spring, according to new estimates from the Washington State Employment Security Department. Average weekly pay rose 2-point-6 percent in the second quarter of 2025, climbing to 971 dollars a week, a pace that fell slightly behind regional inflation tracked by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. State data shows this was the slowest wage growth in the county since late 2023. Construction and agriculture workers saw the strongest gains, while manufacturing wages declined and most other sectors remained flat.
