The New Haven median of $80,850 is below the national median of $82,320, and below the Connecticut statewide median of $85,450 (BLS OEWS, May 2025).
The metro’s location quotient of 0.84 means logisticians are less concentrated here than in the average U.S. labor market (BLS OEWS, May 2025). Higher concentration generally means more employers competing for the same people, and an easier job change later.
Supply chain employment concentrates around ports, distribution hubs, manufacturing and military logistics installations rather than following population.

| Waterbury | $87,750 | 180 |

Licensing is a state matter, not a city one. There is no license for supply chain work. The recognized credentials come from ASCM, principally CPIM for production and inventory management and CSCP for the end-to-end supply chain. Federal transportation regulation applies to carriers and operations rather than to the planner personally.
See the Connecticut licensing and pay overview for the statewide picture, and confirm current requirements with ASCM and the employers you are targeting.
Schools in our database near this area, ranked by BOC Score. The list favors schools with a related program on record, but program availability and delivery format change, so confirm directly with any school that it currently offers the program you want.
We first gather the schools closest to the city or state page you are viewing, then rank that local group by BOC Score, with the highest at the top. The BOC Score is computed from federal IPEDS and College Scorecard data; schools without enough data to score appear last.
Schools without enough federal outcome data appear after ranked schools, without a score. Advertising never affects these rankings. Read the full methodology.
