Bank Teller Salary in Albuquerque, NM (2026)

What bank teller pay in Albuquerque really looks like

At about $19.19 an hour ($39,920 a year), Albuquerque pays modestly below the national market for bank tellers — $3,110 (7%) under the U.S. median of $43,030. It is a real gap, but a beatable one: the higher end of the local range closes most of it, and a credential or a supervisory step can push a Albuquerque bank teller past the national figure without leaving the metro.

Pay is tightly clustered here: the 25th-to-75th-percentile band runs just $36,950 to $46,120 (BLS). A narrow spread means the metro median is a dependable expectation rather than a midpoint between wildly different jobs — there is little room above it without a credential, a specialty, or a supervisory step, so the ladder up is about the role, not just the employer.

This is a substantial local market: BLS estimates roughly 950 bank teller jobs across the Albuquerque, NM metro area (a count of metro employment, not a survey of reported salaries). A deep employer base is good news for pay — it means more openings to compare side by side, more turnover creating vacancies, and more leverage to hold out for an employer at the top of the local range instead of settling for the first offer that lands.

Right now, Jobeezy is tracking 24 open bank teller jobs in Albuquerque against the BLS $39,920 benchmark — the live listings and the employers hiring are below, so you can see which openings actually clear the metro median before you apply.

Put it together and the picture for Albuquerque is concrete: a metro median of $39,920 with most bank tellers landing between $36,950 and $46,120. The practical move is to aim for the upper half of that band. Jobeezy fit-scores local bank teller openings, surfaces the employers posting toward $46,120, and applies for you — so your time goes to the jobs that clear the Albuquerque median, not the ones that sit under it.
