Housing is a foundation of dignity. But today, many Nevadans are struggling just to keep a roof overhead. Here are recent facts:

– In 2023, nearly 13,986 people entered homelessness in Nevada.

– The inability to afford housing extends beyond homelessness: many more are “cost-burdened,” spending large shares of income on rent or mortgage

– Disparities are stark: Indigenous, Black, Latino, and low-income communities face heightened vulnerability in housing access and stability

– Homeownership remains out of reach for many, reinforcing generational inequality.

– In rural and tribal areas, housing and infrastructure may be older, less safe, or under-resourced

Home is sacred. Every person deserves stability, security, a space to flourish.
