BUFFALO, N.Y. — Certain occupations in the health-care field offer the clearest path to high salaries in the Buffalo area, according to a recent federal study.
Surgeons, family practitioners, dentists and nurse anesthetists are the four highest-paid occupations in Erie and Niagara counties, based on data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
But what if positions of that type were eliminated from consideration? Which non-health-care jobs offer salaries that are well above normal? Business First found the answer by analyzing the latest statistics for 47 white-collar occupations within the management and financial fields.
