Four Ottawa County employees earn $200,000 or more annually, according to the Mackinac Center for Public Policy.

The highest annual salary earned among Ottawa County employees was $244,672 to Judith Abraham.

The highest salary was $248,393 in 2020.

According to records, 7,142 individuals received compensation for their work from Ottawa County in 2021. Of those, 2,870 earned less than $20,000.

A report from members of the Federal Salary Council published on May 2, 2019, argued the pay structures within the U.S. government are skewed and federal workers are overpaid.

Downsizing the Federal Government, a project advocating for smaller government in the face of rising deficits, argued over 2 million federal employees earned $30,000 more on average than private-sector employees in similar fields and have more generous benefit packages.
