Does Boulder City have its own rule?
No. NRS 612.340; Nevada DETR applies across Nevada, so a claim from Boulder City is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is which workforce office you deal with in person and how busy it is — not the weekly amount or the number of weeks.
What the statute says
NRS 612.340; Nevada DETR — Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation. NRS 612.340 sets the weekly benefit at 1/25 (4%) of highest-quarter wages, capped at 50% of the state average weekly wage — $469 for current claims, recomputed every July.
