FAQs on Salaries for U.S. Customs and Border Protection Jobs

What is the Typical Border Patrol Salary?

The median border patrol salary range is very broad, extending from around $30,000 to around $90,000 for a border guard and from around $40,000 to around $98,000 for a police officer. One of the biggest factors affecting salary is experience, as shown on the chart measuring Border Patrol Salary by Years Experience. Entry-level employees can expect to earn much lower salaries than those with 20 years of experience in the field. Another consideration is location. New Mexico currently ranks very high on the chart comparing Border Patrol Salary by State. Other high-ranking states include Michigan and Illinois.
