Nevada Reno General Schedule Payscale

The Reno Locality Area is a General Schedule locality primarily located within Nevada. Federal employees who work within the Reno locality area receive a locality adjustment of 17.11%, which is applied to the base General Schedule payscale.

Locality adjustment rates are set yearly by the OPM to account for higher costs of living within Reno, as compared to the Rest of U.S. locality raise (which is applied to all Federal employees not located within any other locality).

The chart below is the 2024 General Schedule pay table, with Reno's 17.11% locality raise applied to the base pay rates. These are the yearly pay rates that are applicable to most salaried federal employees within this region, based on their GS Grade and Step.
