What Henderson residents earn

$45,878

Median earnings of Henderson residents working in sales and related occupations, 16,622 people. Census ACS 5-year 2023, tables S2401 and B24011. Where people live, not where they work, so it is not the same measurement as the wages beside it.

The 56% figure is not a pay gap. ACS counts the civilian employed population 16 and over, part-time and part-year work included; OEWS counts wage-and-salary jobs only. The two populations differ, so read this number against other cities rather than as a shortfall: the same definitional difference applies to every city equally, which is what makes a city-to-city reading sound.

Residents here already earn more than this role pays, so your offer is competing with whatever they currently commute to.

Is the talent actually in Henderson?

This is a job zone two: some preparation needed occupation. These occupations usually require a high school diploma.

It does not require a degree, which widens the pool considerably. For context, 36.8% of Henderson adults hold one. Census ACS 5-year 2023, table S1501.

The average Henderson commute runs 24.7 minutes, which is roughly how far your catchment reaches before candidates start saying no. 15.8% already work from home, so a fully onsite requirement here is competing against that.

How often do these jobs turn over?

In Clark County, retail trade employs 114,615 and turns over 12.0% a quarter, with 17,582 hires against 21,482 separations. Average earnings in that industry run $3,398 a month. Census LEHD Quarterly Workforce Indicators, 2024 Q1, NAICS 44-45.

That figure covers every occupation in the industry, not this role alone, so read it as the local churn rate rather than as a number about cashiers. It still tells you what you are hiring into: a high-churn market, where speed matters more than a perfect fit.

What does the search cost?

The fee is set by the seniority of the role, never by salary and never by location. Across all six tiers it runs $6,240 to $54,340 per search. A contingency firm hiring at this role's median would bill roughly $5,872 to $8,808 on the first year salary alone.

One owner runs the search from market map to signed offer. Searches typically fill in 23 to 35 days, which is a typical window rather than a promise, and the replacement guarantee runs 45 days at 50% off.
