Locality pay usually refers to when working in industry such as mining and other rural positions. This could include types of Biology, Aboriginal Studies, Marine Life and Culture. Locality Pay is purely that. Any Field that requires you to either travel or have temporary lodgings outside the norm or where you might be inaccessible by most means whilst you work or study.

Hopefully this might help.

Define civilian locality pay areas?

Currently there are 32 locality pay areas in the GS (General Schedule) system. They are ways the government pay is compared to the local sector's pay for the same job. Example: in NY area a plumber may make 30.00 an hour but a GS employee would make 20.00 with out the Locality Pay. all GS employees make the same money based on GS level (gs 8 in kansas makes the same pay as a GS 8 in NY) then they compensate for where you are in the US. By your Locality Pay Area so NY makes makes more with their Locality pay than kansas does for the same job due to the cost of living in that area. gs 8 NY = 22.73 where in kansas for the same job is 20.23. A locality is location geographically. The Federal Salary Council reports to the president on this very subject with recomendations for increases by which locality you work in.
