What drives the number
Business analyst ranges run below the US analyst median ($106,000 to $150,000).
Domain moves it: business analyst roles in finance, healthcare and enterprise software often post higher ranges than general operations roles.
How this was counted
Pay counts only listings that state a two-ended annual range in US dollars, parsed from the employer's own text. Hourly, monthly and other currencies are left out, and nothing is estimated.
30% of US business analyst roles post a range of some kind, so this is the pay of employers who disclose it.
Where the numbers come from
Every number on this page is computed from the live analyst roles on realanalystjobs.com on 23 October 2026, read from the employers' own career pages and re-checked daily, and it updates as roles open and close. H-1B figures come from the USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub (data as of 2026-06-30). Nothing is estimated or projected.
