|---|---|---|---|
| Reno, NV | $4,450 – $9,050 | $6,750 | +1% |

Wages behind the Nevada number
Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 2 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 1.03 for Nevada.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 50%) the local median is $29.99 an hour, which is in line with the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.25 and $39.13 an hour. BLS counts 12,700 of them working in the state, 81.9 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 50% of the weighting: a median of $23.55 an hour, 4% above the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $20.22 and $31.12 an hour. About 11,890 work in the state. That is 76.6 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($39.13 an hour) would add about $240 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($24.25) would take off about $150. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 1,551,540 jobs across Nevada (May 2025), which is 1.0% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 50% | $24.25 | $29.99 | $39.13 | $29.12 | 1.03 | state |
| Construction laborers (47-2061) | 50% | $20.22 | $23.55 | $31.12 | $22.66 | 1.04 | state |

Nevada seasons and vinyl fence
Season matters for vinyl fence. For each Nevada metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.
Reno has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Nevada at 10 months (September through June); Las Vegas has the shortest at 8 (October through May). Rainfall runs from 4 inches a year in Las Vegas to 7 inches in Reno.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Las Vegas | 39 | 104 | 4 | 8: October through May |
| Reno | 26 | 94 | 7 | 10: September through June |
