Las Vegas labor market for tile floor
Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 2 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Las Vegas is 1.12 times the national level.
For tile and stone setters (47-2044, weighted 85%) the local median is $30.55 an hour, which is 14% above the national $26.77. The middle half of them earn between $24.55 and $47.23 an hour. BLS counts 990 of them working in the area, 8.7 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 2.3), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 15% of the weighting: a median of $23.19 an hour, in line with the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $19.36 and $30.14 an hour. About 8,280 work in the metro. That is 72.8 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the tile and stone setters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($47.23 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $1,300. At the 25th percentile ($24.55) it shrinks by about $480. The total moves by 20.8% or 7.5%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
For context on the local economy, BLS counts 1,136,960 jobs in the Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas area. That makes it the 26th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.73% of US employment.
