Housing availability and affordability can play an important role in understanding a community's social and economic well-being. Stable housing can contribute to a robust workforce and foster a sense of unity within the community. The Nevada Economic Assessment Project (NEAP) has conducted a comprehensive housing assessment across all 17 counties, providing insight into current housing supply, demand, and affordability. This assessment provides a baseline housing analysis useful for developing housing policies, plans, and strategies benefiting Nevada communities.
Three complementary publications are available, including:
1. Housing Assessment & Affordability Analysis
- The Demographic and Economic Characteristics section outlines the county's profile, setting the stage for an analysis of the housing market. It presents demographic data that characterizes the community's population and economic indicators that reveal their resources and capabilities.
- The Housing Supply section details the inventory of housing units, including the types and ages of structures, as well as the availability of housing categorized by ownership status, such as owned, rented, or vacant.
- The Housing Demand section addresses the characteristics of households and the various factors influencing their preferences for housing tenure, including income levels, housing costs, and the availability of suitable housing options.
- The Housing Affordability Analysis section investigates the relationship between the existing housing supply, housing costs, and household income levels.
2. The Housing Data Profile report accompanies the analysis. This profile offers sources along with more comprehensive demographic, social, economic data, and housing characteristics used in the assessment.
3. The set of infographics follows the four sections of the “Housing Assessment & Affordability Analysis” report, giving a quick overview of the main data points and analysis.
