What this pays, and what it is worth
- Nevada sits in the middle of the pack for fundraisers. The median is $68,530, ranking 19 of 51 states with figures. Close enough to the national middle that where you live matters more than the headline suggests.
- Against other work in Nevada, this sits in the middle: 180 of 485 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
- Here is where Nevada does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $68,530 you keep $57,041, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $58,817 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $70,710, because the best-paid pull it up.
- Nevada occupies the middle band for fundraisers: a median of $68,530, ranking 19 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.
- Fundraisers ranks 180 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.
- After federal, FICA and Nevada income tax, retained pay for fundraisers on $68,530 is $57,041. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $58,817 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 $70,710 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of fundraisers in Nevada earn under $68,530 and half over. The published range runs $46,630 at the tenth percentile to $93,870 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Nevada's $57,041, worked from $68,530. 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 180 of 485.
- One number stands for prices across all of Nevada, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $58,817, the adjusted value of that $68,530 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 180 of 485 in the state.
- Figures are distribution medians for fundraisers in Nevada, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $46,630 to $93,870; 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.
- The Nevada take-home of $57,041, on $68,530 for work ranking 180 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 180 of 485 in the state.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Nevada, so $58,817 — the adjusted value of that $68,530 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 180 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 $70,710, pulled upward by the top of the range, which is why the middle is the fairer number to plan against.
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Most of these jobs pay within a close range — $46,630 at the tenth percentile, $93,870 at the ninetieth.
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 $58,817.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $57,041 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?
This occupation is published everywhere — all 51 of them — so comparing states measures real differences rather than gaps in the data.
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 $70,710. 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 is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($46,630 to $93,870) 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 $58,817 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 $57,041 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.
