How Aberdeen compares with the rest of South Dakota

Construction wages in Aberdeen average $26.41 per hour against $26.41 statewide, so pricing tracks the South Dakota norm closely.

Labor is about 58% of the installed cost on this type of work, and it is the part that actually moves between markets. Materials are priced by national manufacturers and barely shift, which is why the gap between metros is narrower than wage differences alone suggest.
