Las Vegas, NV, October 27, 2026 —
Nevada received a C-minus grade and ranked 34th among the 50 states in Realtor.com’s latest housing affordability report card. The study found that home prices in the state continue to rise faster than incomes, even as new home construction and housing inventory have increased.
The report summary points to a gap between the pace of home-price growth and income growth as a continuing affordability concern. More construction and a larger inventory have not, according to the study, changed the trend of prices outpacing incomes. The summary particularly notes the Las Vegas Valley as an area where construction and inventory have grown.
The ranking places Nevada in the lower portion of the report’s state list, though the information provided does not include the underlying affordability figures or explain how the grades and rankings were calculated. It also does not specify the period covered by the report, the size of the price or income increases, or how much new construction and inventory changed.
The findings describe two developments occurring at the same time: housing supply has expanded, while prices have continued to rise faster than incomes. The summary does not provide details on how those trends vary across Nevada beyond its reference to the Las Vegas Valley, nor does it identify other factors that may affect affordability.
Realtor.com’s report card is the source of the C-minus grade and 34th-place ranking. Further details about the study’s methods and data were not included in the information provided.
