    Four states from last year return on this year's list of the highest-paying states for electrical engineers based on data from the “Occupational Employment and Wages, May 2023 Study,” released from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Unfortunately, Utah was knocked out of this year's top five, and a new state has jumped in the ranking to claim the number three spot. Can you guess which state has joined the top five?

    This gallery presents the top five highest-paying states for electrical engineers in 2023, listed in descending order. It's important to keep in mind that these rankings do not take cost of living into consideration.
