What this pays, and what it is worth
- The nominal figure here is modest. Nevada pays this job a middle wage of $76,750, 41 of 51 states and about 12.31% below the national middle. Hold that thought until the adjusted numbers.
- Middle of the local pack. Of 485 occupations Nevada reports figures for, this is number 144.
- Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $76,750 you keep $62,824 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $64,780 at national prices. Averages run higher here, $84,380, since top earners drag the number up.
- Nevada's $76,750 median for first-line supervisors of non-retail sales workers places it 41 of 51 states, about 12.31% below national. Because both the tax and price adjustments tend to favor lower-nominal states, this ranking is the least stable of the three reported here.
- In Nevada's occupational distribution, first-line supervisors of non-retail sales workers sits at 144 of 485 — neither quartile. This local position is what a resident compares against, and it is determined by the state's own labor market rather than by national patterns for this occupation.
- Retained pay in Nevada is $62,824 after the full tax stack, from $76,750. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $64,780 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $84,380 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $76,750 as a midpoint for Nevada, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $51,100 and the ninetieth is $123,120 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- In Nevada the take-home figure of $62,824, from $76,750, 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 144 of 485 occupations here.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $64,780 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 144.
- The Nevada median of $76,750 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $51,100 to $123,120. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- Take-home for Nevada is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $62,824 from $76,750. 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 144 of 485 locally.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $64,780, worked from $76,750, 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 144 of 485 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
It is the midpoint, not the average. The average here is $84,380, dragged up by high earners; the middle figure describes a typical worker better.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
One title, many jobs. The lowest tenth take $51,100, the highest tenth $123,120, and what separates them is experience, employer and what exactly the role does.
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 $64,780.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $62,824 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 $84,380. 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 ($51,100) and the ninetieth ($123,120) 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 $64,780 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 $62,824 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.
