COMMON QUESTIONS

Nevada county map questions.

Why are there 17 selectable areas when Nevada has 16 counties?

The Census counts independent Carson City as a county equivalent. It is a separate selectable area alongside the 16 counties.

Which code should I use for Carson City?

Use the county-level GEOID 32510 in the Nevada editor. Keep the official name “Carson City” and avoid appending “County.”

Can I color Las Vegas and Reno independently?

This editor selects Clark and Washoe counties. For estimates reported only for Las Vegas or Reno, use a municipal boundary source.

Why compare Clark and Lyon per 1,000 residents?

Rates scale net domestic moves to each county’s population. Counts answer a different question about the number of people moving in or out on net.

What should I look for around Lake Tahoe?

Use the generalized Nevada county outlines for Washoe, Carson City and Douglas. This editor covers Nevada. A cross-state view needs the nationwide county map.

How should I interpret unusual rent estimates in sparsely populated counties?

Read the ACS margins of error and the estimated denominator. A small estimated number of computable renter households can make a percentage sensitive to relatively small changes.
