How to read these numbers
- These are estimates from a survey, not a count. The American Community Survey asks a sample of households. The ± figure is the Census Bureau’s margin of error: the true value is very likely within that range of the estimate. Small places have large margins.
- “Too imprecise to report” means the margin of error is at least half of the estimate, so printing the number would suggest accuracy that does not exist. A “rough guide only” note means the margin is a quarter to a half of the estimate.
- Property tax bill and home value are medians for owner-occupied homes. Half of the homes are above the figure and half below. A median bill is not the rate set by a city or town; the bill combines taxes levied by every local government that serves the home, such as the school district and county.
- “Calculated” rows are worked out by Untax the Roof from the Census figures above them. They compare two medians, so they describe the place, not a particular household.
- Missing is not zero. Where the Census Bureau publishes no figure, this page says so.

If property taxes go unpaid in Nevada
How it works. County treasurer holds delinquent property in trust after trustee certificate; after statutory redemption period deed is delivered to treasurer as trustee, with later reconveyance/sale options
Excess sale money. NRS 361.610 directs tax/cost payments first; county keeps first $300 of excess and 10% of next $10,000. Remaining excess is held in interest-bearing account. Eligible persons can claim within 1 year after deed from county treasurer is recorded; unclaimed amounts then go partly to statutory account and county general fund under current law
