According to Glassdoor, ReactJS developer salaries usually fall in the range of $59k to $144k in the United States.

For senior developers, the salaries have gone as high as $171k/yr, although the average salary for a senior developer is around $121k.
However, the numbers recorded across platforms aren't uniform. ZipRecruiter states that the average annual salary for a ReactJS developer is about $108k with the range being $28k to $155k. The average salary for a senior React developer is also stated to be ~$140k, which is a sizable difference compared to Glassdoor’s $121k. The numbers for junior developers also vary greatly.
We checked yet another platform, Salary.com, and while the numbers were closer to Glassdoor (average annual salary on Salary.com - ~93k) than ZipRecruiter, there was still a considerable difference between the salaries for different ranges. Salary.com shows that the range lies between $82-$107k/year, making React developers one of the most coveted and high paying jobs in the United States.

ReactJS Developer Salary By Location
Apart from experience levels, the salaries of ReactJS developers also vary greatly from one region to another. As seen in this graph of ReactJS developer salary by location, React developers in North America earn much more than their counterparts in Asia or Africa. For example, while in Canada the average React developer salary is CA$75,736/yr (close to USD 56k), in India, Glassdoor records an annual average salary of ~557k (< USD 7k). Further variations are seen between regions inside these countries, too. These differences are mostly directly proportional to the cost of living in the regions.
While the cost varies, the quality of talent across the globe doesn’t always vary as much, and you can find great talent in cheaper locations. As a company, if you are looking to hire ReactJS developers, you should surely consider checking out developers across regions before picking.
