ChurchSalary 3.0's integrated suite of location-based applications is designed to provide church leaders like you with the accurate, up-to-date demographic data you need to make informed pay decisions that reflect your community's unique context.
ChurchSalary utilizes several different apps and methods to evaluate the impact of location on pay for your church.
Use our new suite of Location-Based Apps for a wide range of tasks including specialized tasks such as estimating the fair rental value of a parsonage using the gross median rent for your city in the COLA app or simply evaluating and adding satellite campus locations.
Cost of Living Index
Your Starting Point for Local Context
Every ChurchSalary report includes a foundational Cost of Living Index or COLI figure at the county-level.
COLI is a estimate of the cost of goods, services, and housing in your county relative to the national average. Understanding this figure is an essential first step in assessing the relative affordability of your area.
Analyze Your Community
Dive Deeper with More Data
For a more detailed perspective, the Cost of Living Analysis app utilizes data that is sourced dynamically from the Census Bureau to provide Expanded members with a more comprehensive perspective using up to 17 different local income and cost metrics.
Rather than throwing hundreds of numbers on a page like DataUSA.io, our new Cost of Living Analysis app precisely geolocates your church's address at four crucial geographic levels—(1) Census Tract, (2) Place, (3) County, and (4) Metro—in order to provide you with a multi-layered and accurate view of your local economic conditions, instead of a single index.
Even if you live in a rural area, the Cost of Living Analysis app is designed with multiple fallback options such as your county subdivision and PUMA.
Identify Local Pay
Identify True Pay Patterns
Integrated into the Cost of Living Analysis app, the Local Income & Cost Analysis (LICA) tool is designed to truly empower your church to adjust nationwide pay to suit your specific location.
Rather than relying on a single cost of living index figure, the LICA tool identifies the common thresholds and patterns that are impacting pay in your area across using up to 17 different proxy metrics across all 4 geographic levels from various government and non-profit organizations.
Move beyond general averages and pre-baked data to pinpoint the most accurate local pay adjustments for your church, ensuring your compensation aligns with the true economic realities of your community.
Seamless Integration
Make Confident Decisions Based on the Most Recent Data
Our new Location API is built into all six of the new Salary Report apps in order to provide church leaders with a seamless and comprehensive approach to adjusting nationwide compensation ranges to suit their unique geographic setting.
Start with the COLI figure for your county and metro areas, expand your analysis and identify patterns among cost and income metrics, and apply them to your church.
What are leaders saying?
We didn’t know what the proper pay scale was for our ministers, assistants, and even our custodial staff. ChurchSalary’s reports showed us where we needed to adjust pay.

Toggle between standalone position reports and the hybridized figures using our new tabs feature, and even download a comprehensive PDF that collates all of the tabs into one cohesive report.
