Veterinary Assistants
In Michigan, veterinary assistants earned a median $37,960 a year ($18.25 an hour) in May 2025, according to the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS), May 2025. That's about the same as the national median of $38,150. The middle 80% earned between $30,410 and $46,730. With Michigan prices at 96.2% of the US average (BEA Regional Price Parities, 2024), that median buys about what $39,452 would nationally: #26 of 51 states for buying power. About 4,420 people work in this occupation in Michigan. Nationally, BLS projects 9.1% job growth from 2025 to 2035 and about 23,200 openings a year (BLS Employment Projections 2025–35, Table 1.10).
