How to Use the Burlington-South Burlington-Barre, VT Pay Table

This page provides the 2026 General Schedule (GS) pay table for the Burlington-South Burlington-Barre, VT locality pay area. The table covers GS-1 through GS-15, with annual salary rates for Steps 1 through 10.

The 2026 locality payment for Burlington-South Burlington-Barre, VT is 19.45%. The published total increase for the 2026 table is 1%. The salaries shown in the table already include the applicable locality adjustment, so the locality percentage should not be added to these amounts again.

To find a salary, locate the employee’s GS grade in the first column and then select the appropriate step from 1 through 10. For example, an employee classified as GS-12 Step 5 should use the amount where the GS-12 row and Step 5 column meet.

GS grades represent different levels within the General Schedule, while steps represent salary progression within a grade. Moving to a higher step generally increases pay without changing the employee’s GS grade. A promotion to a higher grade is separate from progression through the steps of the current grade.

The Burlington-South Burlington-Barre, VT rate is based on the employee’s official duty station. OPM defines each locality pay area using specific geographic boundaries, which may include particular counties and other jurisdictions. A location near this locality is not necessarily covered by the same pay table and may fall under another locality area or the Rest of U.S. schedule.

These figures represent the standard GS locality schedule. Some federal employees may instead be affected by special salary rates, law-enforcement pay schedules, pay caps, or other special pay provisions. Those employees should verify the applicable schedule for their position and duty station.

To compare Burlington-South Burlington-Barre, VT with another locality, use the same grade and step in both tables. This provides a more meaningful comparison because differences caused by grade level or step progression are removed.

The salary rates on this page are based on the official 2026 U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) annual locality pay table identified by OPM table code BN. The official OPM source linked on this page should be used to confirm current rates, geographic coverage, applicable pay limitations, and special-rate situations.
