Vegas Inc

With overall inflation down from a summer 2022 peak, the Federal Reserve’s effort to tame inflation through monetary policy has been on many accounts successful. However, households across the United States are still feeling the pinch in one specific area: housing. In this sector, inflation is running two points higher than the mainline rate.

Action Network

In Nevada, about 17% of workers earn their income from tipped jobs, which is the highest rate in the United States, according to the Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. Tipping is such a hot topic in Vegas that both Presidential candidates promised to eliminate taxes on tips to increase these workers' incomes. One study found that Nevada doesn’t even crack the top five for annual casino dealer salaries.
