Florida is a big destination for Nevada leavers in raw numbers: about 9,338 people moved from Nevada to Florida in 2024 against about 6,293 who moved the other way. Because both states lack an income tax, the question here is less about your paycheck and more about the calendar. ## A ten-day registration clock The Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles department says to title and register your vehicles within 10 days of establishing residency, and to obtain a Florida driver license within 30 days. Triggers include taking a job, enrolling a child in public school or establishing residency otherwise. A few Florida pages show a longer window for registration renewals, so use the ten-day figure for planning. Book a tax collector or service center appointment for your first week, and bring your Nevada title, proof of Florida insurance and proof of address. ## No income tax on either side The Florida Department of Revenue says the state does not impose a personal income, inheritance or gift tax. Nevada does not tax wages either, so your paycheck should look familiar. The state sales tax is 6 percent and counties add a discretionary surtax of up to 2.5 percent. Property insurance and local property taxes are where the budget can change, and they sit outside this page's data. Ask a local agent for quotes before you choose a house. ## Why so many Nevadans go Florida's median household income is 74,568 dollars, its median home value is 359,000 dollars and its median gross rent is 1,669 dollars a month, and its median age is 42.6. About 660 people a year left Washoe County for Florida in the county data.

We coordinate the move from Sparks through the Bekins network, and your written estimate sets the delivery window. Florida humidity is a good reason to ask about packing: full packing protects books, photographs and upholstery. Storage in Sparks can hold what you are not ready to move into a smaller house. ### Sources (checked October 18, 2026) - [Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles - New Resident](https://www.flhsmv.gov/new-resident/) - [Florida Department of Revenue - Tax Information for New Residents (GT-800025)](https://floridarevenue.com/Forms_library/current/brochure/gt800025.pdf) - [Florida Department of Revenue - Florida Sales and Use Tax](https://floridarevenue.com/taxes/taxesfees/Pages/sales_tax.aspx) - [U.S. Census Bureau, State-to-State Migration Flows](https://www.census.gov/topics/population/migration/guidance/state-to-state-migration-flows.html) ### Licensed movers U.S. DOT No. 30611 MC-109375 Nevada CPCN 1070 Cal PUC T-90973 (as published by O'Brien's) Bekins Van Lines interstate agent since 1955 [Check our USDOT record](https://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/query.asp?searchtype=ANY&query_type=queryCarrierSnapshot&query_param=USDOT&query_string=30611) · [Ready to Move?
