How much do news analysts, reporters, and journalists make in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV?

What the News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median says in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV at $81,640 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 27-3023 and BLS area 29820.

BLS lists 300 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $88,260 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.

Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV's News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median is 31.3% above the U.S. News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median of $62,200 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.

Read the Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV wage ladder for News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists

The 10th percentile is $49,930 per year. The 25th percentile is $62,800 per year. The median is $81,640 per year. The 75th percentile is $99,990 per year. The 90th percentile is $129,990 per year.

A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.

The middle half runs from $62,800 per year to $99,990 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $80,060. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.

Compare Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV with its state and the U.S.

Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has a annual median of $81,640 per year. Nevada has $78,550 per year. The U.S. row has $62,200 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.

Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV is 3.9% above Nevada on the same published median. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV is 31.3% above the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.

The state and U.S. rows are benchmarks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.

Where Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV sits for News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists

Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV ranks 4 of 115 among metro areas with a published annual median for News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.

Rank 4 of 115 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.

The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.

• 1. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. The News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median is $101,670 per year. BLS estimates 5,360 jobs. The location quotient is 2.24.

Where News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists medians lead among metro areas

The rows below use the same SOC 27-3023, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the highest published median in this set, at $101,670 per year. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV sits at $81,640 per year.

A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.

Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.

Where BLS counts the most News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists jobs

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists in this same-source set, at 5,360 jobs. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has 300. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.

A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.

Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.

Where News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists takes the largest share of local jobs

Missoula, MT has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 3.13. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has 1.03. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.

A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.

Use this list to ask where News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.

How common News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists is in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV

BLS lists 300 News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists jobs in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV. It also lists 0.26 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.

The location quotient is 1.03. A value of 1 means News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is the same than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.

Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.

Use the list to spot the local wage mix around News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.

The all-occupations job count is 1,136,960. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.

A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.

The local all-occupations median is $46,670 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.

The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.

Roles with the largest local share in Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV

Gambling Dealers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV role table, at 25.31. News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists has 1.03. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.

A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.

The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.

What $81,640 may mean after the Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV price level

BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV is 100.2. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 0.2% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.

WageScope divides the $81,640 News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists median by 100.2 divided by 100. The result is $81,465 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.

Housing is 115.5. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 90.6. Other services are 98.7. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.

How much care to use with the Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV row

The employment RSE for this News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists row is 26.5%. The mean-wage RSE is 5.9%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.

The employment RSE belongs to the 300 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $88,260 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.

A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.

Use Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists. It uses a Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.

Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $81,640 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.

Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.

What the News Analysts, Reporters, and Journalists row for Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV does not claim

The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.

The 300 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.03 is not a growth score. Rank 4 of 115 is not a place score. The 100.2 price index is not a personal budget.

Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 27-3023 in BLS area 29820. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
