R vs TypeScript: which pays more?
The median for R is $139,000 per year (typically $93,932–$163,484), versus $166,811 for TypeScript ($142,300–$191,831). That puts TypeScript about 20% ahead at the median.
Both figures are computed live from active listings on JobsRadar and normalized to annualized USD, so R and TypeScript are compared on equal terms regardless of the currency each role was originally posted in. Only roles that publish a salary range feed the medians; numbers refresh every few hours as new roles post and older ones close, so this comparison reflects the market right now rather than a fixed survey. Use it as a directional benchmark when weighing one path against the other.
