Veterinary Receptionist Salary in Nevada

The 10th percentile, $29,340, is 2% above the national floor of $28,760 — the only Nevada figure above its national counterpart.

From the 25th percentile up, the state sits below: 2% down at $33,280, 3% at the median, 3% at the 75th ($43,710 against $45,130, $1,420 less), and 4% at the 90th, $47,790 against $49,950 — $2,160 less.

The below-national gaps widen as pay rises, so someone benchmarking a Nevada offer against national figures would overstate the ceiling and slightly understate the floor.

Half of the Nevada workers counted earned between $33,280 and $43,710, a band $10,430 wide — against the national band of $11,170.

The full 10th-to-90th span is $18,450, from $29,340 to $47,790, against the national span of $21,190 — most of that compression comes from the top, where the Nevada 90th percentile sits $2,160 below the national one, while the Nevada floor sits above its national counterpart.

The median sits $3,770 above the 25th percentile and $6,660 below the 75th.

OEWS does not publish causes, and this row counts every industry, so the shape cannot be read as anything about veterinary employers.

The Nevada hourly median is $17.81, against $18.27 nationally — $0.46 less, the same 3% gap as the annual median.

The data set carries hourly pay at the median only, so it is the figure to hold an hourly posting against.

Before comparing a posted rate with the annual percentiles, ask how many hours a week the role is scheduled.

BLS estimates 10,650 receptionists and information clerks were employed in Nevada, 29th among the 51 jurisdictions.

That is a count across every industry — hotels, offices, clinics and every other employer — so it says nothing about how many work in veterinary settings, and it is a headcount of people in jobs, not a count of openings.

In the same release, veterinary technologists and technicians in Nevada have a median of $50,250 — $13,200, or 36%, more than the all-industry receptionist median on this page, or $24.16 an hour against $17.81, a $6.35 gap.

That comparison sets a veterinary occupation against an all-industry one, so it is context for someone weighing a move into technician work, not a measure of what a veterinary front desk pays and not a raise anyone should expect.
