Rehabilitation Counselors pay in Nevada and Wyoming
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Rehabilitation Counselors is $40,120 per year in Nevada. It is $67,640 per year in Wyoming. Nevada is 40.7% below Wyoming on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 21-1015 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 570 wage and salary jobs in Nevada and 70 in Wyoming. 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.
