Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants pay in District of Columbia and Nevada
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants is $90,850 per year in District of Columbia. It is $67,830 per year in Nevada. District of Columbia is 33.9% above Nevada on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 43-6011 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 4,560 wage and salary jobs in District of Columbia and 2,670 in Nevada. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
