At a glance
Carson City at a glance
The capital is easy to read as a government town, but Carson City's ZIP codes held 138 manufacturers, 40 fabricated metal product makers and 21 machinery manufacturers in the 2023 ZIP Code Business Patterns. The 2020-2024 American Community Survey counts 2,696 of the city's residents as employed in manufacturing, in a city of 58,384.
I have used Wolf Machine several times over the past few years for fabricating and repair of parts on my ultralight aircraft. [...] These guys are great to deal with. I wouldn't take my projects anywhere else.
A bigger count than the city line shows
The County Business Patterns list 104 manufacturing establishments inside Carson City itself, with 2,621 employees and 27 fabricated metal product makers. The ZIP code figure of 138 is higher because the ZIP codes also take in some neighboring areas, such as Indian Hills. Both are correct; they count different boundaries.
Who works in manufacturing here
Of the 26,862 employed Carson City residents counted by the American Community Survey, 2,696 work in manufacturing, about one in ten, and 1,981 work in construction, about one in fourteen. Those two groups run the shop floors and job sites where equipment wears.
Construction and machine shops around the capital
The four Carson City ZIP codes also held 216 construction establishments, 39 in transportation and warehousing, and 7 machine shops. A mix like that means trucks, presses, pumps and machine tools that wear. Each of those has a part we repair or make: hydraulic cylinders, shafts, housings and fabricated parts.
Jobs that stay with the machine
When a machine cannot be moved, portable align boring and millwright and field work are done at your site. Distance and access decide how that is planned, so call with the address and photos. For the broader picture of the area, see the drive times and business counts page.
