What this pays, and what it is worth
- Neither high nor low. Nevada is 20 of 48 states for this job, with a middle wage of $61,180. What that is worth is the question the rest of this page answers.
- Against other work in Nevada, this sits in the middle: 241 of 485 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
- Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $61,180 you keep $51,338 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $52,937 at national prices. Here the average runs under the middle, at $59,900.
- Nevada ranks 20 of 48 for first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers at $61,180. The nominal figure is unremarkable; the adjusted figures are where the state's actual position for this occupation is determined.
- First-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers ranks 241 of 485 occupations in Nevada by median pay, in the middle bands. Within-state and national positions are separate measurements and a job commonly sits in different quartiles on each.
- Retained pay in Nevada is $51,338 after the full tax stack, from $61,180. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $52,937 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $59,900 sits under the median, so the lower tail is the longer one.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers in Nevada earn under $61,180 and half over. The published range runs $36,600 at the tenth percentile to $79,890 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- That $51,338 take-home in Nevada comes from $61,180. It is the no-frills case: single filer, standard deduction, nothing set aside before tax. Real circumstances almost always reduce the tax. City and school-district taxes are not counted at all. Locally the work ranks 241 of 485.
- One number stands for prices across all of Nevada, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $52,937, the adjusted value of that $61,180 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 241 of 485 in the state.
- Figures are distribution medians for first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers in Nevada, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $36,600 to $79,890; within-state dispersion of that width routinely exceeds the dispersion between states, so tenure, employer and metropolitan area predict an individual's pay better than geography does.
- Retained pay of $51,338, from $61,180, assumes a single Nevada filer with the standard deduction and no elective deferrals. Pre-tax retirement or HSA contributions, dependants and itemized deductions all reduce it further; local income taxes, excluded here, would increase it in the states that levy them. This occupation ranks 241 of 485 locally, and the state ranks 20 of 48 for it.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Nevada, so $52,937 — the adjusted value of that $61,180 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 241 of 485 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Less than you might expect. The bottom tenth earn $36,600 and the top tenth $79,890, so most people doing this work in Nevada sit within a fairly tight band.
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 $52,937 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $51,338 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?
Because the survey suppresses a figure when too few employers report it. This occupation has published pay in 48 states — the rest are withheld to protect confidentiality, which is not the same as nobody doing the work there.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($36,600 to $79,890) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Nevada rather than a national figure.
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 $52,937 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 $51,338 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 48 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
