About This Dataset

This dataset contains salary information for 817 City of Edmonton job titles. It captures both minimum and maximum annual salary figures, offering insight into compensation structure across professional, managerial, and executive roles.

Most positions are concentrated in mid-range salary bands. Maximum salaries most frequently fall between $50K and $120K, while minimum salaries are commonly set between $50K and $100K. This pattern suggests a broad base of professional and technical roles with defined progression ranges.

Higher-paying positions become increasingly scarce as salaries rise.

At the very top, only a handful of roles surpass the $300K threshold, indicating a narrow upper tier.

Overall, the dataset provides a clear snapshot of how compensation scales across the city’s workforce—from entry-level minimums to executive-level maximums—helping contextualize pay structure, leadership hierarchy, and salary distribution within Edmonton’s municipal government.
