How much do journeyman electricians make in Virginia?

BLS doesn't report journeymen on their own, so the electrician percentiles are the best guide. A newly licensed journeyman sits near the $30.24 statewide median, and experienced journeymen tend to reach the 75th percentile of $37.59 an hour, according to BLS wage data for May 2025. In the DC metro, which includes Northern Virginia, the median was $36.50 and the 75th percentile was $49.65.
