Gambling Managers pay in North Dakota and Texas
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Gambling Managers is $79,300 per year in North Dakota. It is $106,670 per year in Texas. North Dakota is 25.7% below Texas on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 11-9071 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 30 wage and salary jobs in North Dakota and 60 in Texas. 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.
