What this pays, and what it is worth
- Pay for this job is on the low side in Nevada. The middle earner gets $38,430. That is 50 of 50 states, and about 19.62% under the national figure. Whether that matters depends on what things cost here.
- Against 485 occupations Nevada publishes, this job lands at 423. That is the lower quarter. That is the comparison people actually feel, more than any national table.
- Here is where Nevada does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $38,430 you keep $33,059, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $34,088 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $47,070, because the best-paid pull it up.
- For computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers, Nevada sits in the lower band at $38,430, ranking 50 of 50 and trailing the national median by about 19.62%. Nominal rankings routinely invert once tax and regional price level are applied, so this position should not be read as the conclusion.
- Within Nevada, this work ranks 423 of 485 occupations by median pay, in the bottom quartile. The within-state position is the more salient one for anyone weighing this job against alternatives available to them locally.
- After federal, FICA and Nevada income tax, retained pay for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers on $38,430 is $33,059. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $34,088 in national-average terms. ⚠️ That figure is purchasing power, not a wage, and nobody is paid it; it is what the take-home buys. The mean of $47,070 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $38,430 as a midpoint for Nevada, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $29,830 and the ninetieth is $70,210 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Nevada's $33,059, worked from $38,430. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 423 of 485.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $34,088 uses one figure for the whole of Nevada. A city and a rural county there can differ by more than two states do. Out of 485 occupations the state publishes, this one sits at 423.
- The Nevada median of $38,430 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $29,830 to $70,210. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- The Nevada take-home of $33,059, on $38,430 for work ranking 423 of 485 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 423 of 485 in the state.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $34,088, worked from $38,430, deflates by a statewide parity that conceals substantial intra-state variation, concentrated in housing — so it supports comparison between states rather than the pricing of a move to a particular Nevada address, on work sitting at 423 of 485 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
No — it is the middle. Half of these workers earn more and half earn less. The average is $47,070, pulled upward by the top of the range, which is why the middle is the fairer number to plan against.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
Because one job title covers very different work. The bottom tenth here earn $29,830 and the top tenth $70,210 — experience, employer and specialism separate them, and a single figure hides all three.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
More than the figure suggests. Prices in Nevada sit below the national level, so take-home here stretches like $34,088 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $33,059 survives, because Nevada levies no wage income tax. The federal share does not change with the state you work in.
Why is this job missing from some states?
A blank is a suppression, not a zero. 50 states have a published figure for this work; the others had too few responses to release one.
How does the published median differ from the mean for this occupation?
The median is the midpoint of the distribution; the mean for this occupation in Nevada is $47,070. Wage distributions are right-skewed, so the mean exceeds the median wherever a minority earn substantially more. BLS publishes both because substituting one for the other misstates a typical worker's pay.
What drives the percentile dispersion in this occupation?
Dispersion between the tenth percentile ($29,830) and the ninetieth ($70,210) exceeds the family median dispersion. SOC codes aggregate roles differing in seniority, industry and specialisation, and BLS does not disaggregate below the detailed occupation level, so within-title variance is not separable from the published series.
What is this occupation's price-adjusted compensation in this state?
Nevada's regional price parity is at or below the national average, so nominal wages understate purchasing power. Take-home deflated by the state price level is $34,088 in national-average terms. The adjustment uses an all-items index and does not isolate housing.
Why is the take-home ratio comparatively high in this state?
Nevada levies no personal income tax on wages, so take-home of $33,059 reflects the federal layer and FICA alone. Federal income tax and FICA are unchanged; states without a wage income tax generally recover revenue through consumption and property bases instead.
Why does this occupation lack published estimates in every state?
BLS suppresses estimates failing disclosure or reliability criteria. This occupation has published state-level estimates in 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
