What this pays, and what it is worth
- Nevada sits in the middle of the pack for facilities managers. The median is $101,850, ranking 29 of 51 states with figures. Close enough to the national middle that where you live matters more than the headline suggests.
- Within Nevada this is well-paid work. Of 485 occupations with published figures in the state, facilities managers ranks 61 — in the top quarter of everything people do there.
- Here is where Nevada does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $101,850 you keep $80,481, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $82,988 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $113,120, because the best-paid pull it up.
- Nevada occupies the middle band for facilities managers: a median of $101,850, ranking 29 of 51. Where nominal pay is close to the national figure, the tax and price adjustments below carry proportionally more weight in determining the real outcome.
- Ranked against every occupation Nevada publishes a median for, facilities managers sits 61 of 485 — the upper quartile of the state's wage distribution. National standing and within-state standing are separate questions, and a job can occupy very different positions on each.
- After federal, FICA and Nevada income tax, retained pay for facilities managers on $101,850 is $80,481. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $82,988 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 $113,120 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Nevada earn less than $101,850. The published range is $66,070 up to $175,620, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- In Nevada the take-home figure of $80,481, from $101,850, assumes one filer, no dependants, and nothing paid into a pension before tax. Each of those lowers the bill, so treat it as the plain case. City and school-district income taxes are not included either, and in a few states those are real money. It ranks 61 of 485 occupations here.
- One number stands for prices across all of Nevada, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $82,988, the adjusted value of that $101,850 median, as a way to compare states fairly, not as a quote for any particular place. The two datasets are also from different years. This job sits at 61 of 485 in the state.
- Reported values are medians; for facilities managers in Nevada the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $66,070 to $175,620. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Take-home for Nevada is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $80,481 from $101,850. Each omitted item reduces taxable income, so the figure is a lower bound on retained pay for this household shape. Municipal and school-district income taxes are excluded, which understates the burden materially in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland. The occupation ranks 61 of 485 locally.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Nevada, so $82,988 — the adjusted value of that $101,850 median — establishes comparability between states rather than accuracy within one. The wage and parity series are dated independently, each following its own publication cycle, and neither is projected forward. This occupation sits at 61 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 $113,120, 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 $66,070 and the top tenth $175,620 — experience, employer and specialism separate them, and a single figure hides all three.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
A smaller wage in a cheaper place is not automatically less. Adjusted for local prices, this is worth $82,988.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $80,481 survives, because Nevada levies no wage income tax. The federal share does not change with the state you work in.
Can I compare this job across every state?
Yes for this one. Pay is published in all 51 jurisdictions, so a state-to-state comparison here rests on the same survey everywhere rather than on a patchwork.
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 $113,120. 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 ($66,070) and the ninetieth ($175,620) 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 $82,988 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 $80,481 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.
Is this occupation's state coverage complete?
State-level estimates are published for all 51 jurisdictions for this occupation, so cross-state comparison is not confounded by suppression. ⚠️ Estimates remain survey-based and carry sampling error; small differences between adjacent states should not be over-read.
