Independent investigative news

Welcome to Nye's Lies

We report on Nye County: the meetings, the money, the water, and what your county government does with all of it.

Everything under Nye County government and resources in the menu is public record, organized so you can actually use it: every meeting and agenda, every bill before the county, water rights, campaign money, what every county employee is paid, and where the budget goes. Dig around. It is all yours.

Alerts only when we publish. Unsubscribe any time.

The record

What Nye County pays

The county's entire 2025 payroll: 624 employees, $63,020,549 in pay and benefits, median base pay $60,130, and 110 people over $100,000 base.

Public employees are paid with public money, and the record of it is public. Nye County publishes none of this itself; the data comes from Transparent Nevada, and every line links to the record that reports it. Overtime is not published for Nye County, so totals here are base plus other pay plus benefits.
