Loan Officers pay in Carson City, NV and Enid, OK
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Loan Officers is $50,690 per year in Carson City, NV. It is $104,990 per year in Enid, OK. Carson City, NV is 51.7% below Enid, OK on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 13-2072 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 60 wage and salary jobs in Carson City, NV and 40 in Enid, OK. 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.
