Illinois sends fewer people to Nevada than it receives: the Census 2024 estimate is about 2,130 people moving from Nevada to Illinois and about 3,104 moving the other way. For the first group, the Secretary of State's new-resident rules set the pace.
The Illinois Secretary of State says new residents have 30 days to apply for an Illinois title and registration after establishing residence, provided the vehicle is properly registered in another jurisdiction. The office's new-resident page describes driving on a valid out-of-state license for up to 90 days or until it expires, then getting an Illinois license at a Secretary of State facility.
Check the Secretary of State site before you go, since the license wording is a summary and offices change their appointment rules.
The Illinois Department of Revenue lists 4.95 percent as the individual income tax rate and 6.25 percent as the general merchandise sales tax rate, with a lower rate for qualifying food and drugs. Local sales taxes add on top.
Nevada has no state personal income tax, so the Illinois paycheck will lose 4.95 percent to the state.
Illinois's median home value is 263,300 dollars, its median gross rent is 1,274 dollars a month and its median household income is 83,390 dollars. About 329 people a year left Washoe County for Illinois in county data, and about 259 came from Illinois to Washoe.
