What this pays, and what it is worth
- Nevada is among the lower-paying states for industrial production managers. The middle earner takes $112,270, ranking 42 of 50 states — about 10.94% below the national middle. Costs here are often lower too, which the figures further down account for.
- Locally, this pays well. Among 485 occupations Nevada reports, industrial production managers comes in at 32 — comfortably in the upper quarter.
- Here is where Nevada does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $112,270 you keep $87,812, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $90,546 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $121,720, because the best-paid pull it up.
- Nevada ranks 42 of 50 for industrial production managers, with a median of $112,270 — about 10.94% below the national figure. A nominal shortfall is not by itself a real one: lower-paying states frequently carry lower tax and lower price levels, and the adjusted figures below are where that is settled rather than assumed.
- Industrial production managers ranks 32 of 485 occupations by median in Nevada, in the top quartile. Within-state position is largely independent of national position, so this holds regardless of how the state compares to others for the same work.
- After federal, FICA and Nevada income tax, retained pay for industrial production managers on $112,270 is $87,812. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $90,546 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 $121,720 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of industrial production managers in Nevada earn under $112,270 and half over. The published range runs $75,650 at the tenth percentile to $187,220 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- That $87,812 take-home in Nevada comes from $112,270. 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 32 of 485.
- One number stands for prices across all of Nevada, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $90,546, the adjusted value of that $112,270 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 32 of 485 in the state.
- Figures are distribution medians for industrial production managers in Nevada, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $75,650 to $187,220; 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 $87,812, from $112,270, 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 32 of 485 locally, and the state ranks 42 of 50 for it.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Nevada, so $90,546 — the adjusted value of that $112,270 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 32 of 485 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
Half earn more than this and half earn less. The average sits at $121,720 because a long tail of high pay lifts it, so the two answer different questions.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
The label is broader than the work. From $75,650 at the bottom tenth to $187,220 at the top, the same title covers roles that share little beyond a name.
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 $90,546 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Less than people assume. $87,812 of this wage reaches your account, because Nevada takes no income tax from wages — but federal tax, Social Security and Medicare still apply exactly as they do everywhere else.
Why is this job missing from some states?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 50 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
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 $121,720. 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 ($75,650) and the ninetieth ($187,220) 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 $90,546 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 $87,812 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.
