What this figure includes

Roofing projects across differing roof sizes, materials and scopes. Area and material are not held constant.

The Census category is “Roofing” within “Exterior Additions and Replacements.” Different project sizes, specifications and amounts of work contribute to the median. The survey does not hold those features constant.

Use it beside a written scope

Are tear-off, decking repairs, flashing and disposal included?

A difference between this figure and your quote does not by itself make the quote high or low. Separate material quantities, removal, preparation, access and excluded work before comparing contractors.

Start with the material calculator to put measured quantities next to the scope. Then use the matching quote worksheet to keep actual prices and unresolved work separate.
