Washoe County, not Reno
Washoe County context, not Reno figures
These are Washoe County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Reno measurements.
- Establishments in Washoe County14,199
- Employment at those establishments, Washoe County209,307
- Covered employment, Washoe County240,544
- Average annual pay, Washoe County$69,452
- Average weekly wage, Washoe County$1,336
- Housing units permitted, Washoe County4,085
- Of those, single family, Washoe County2,256
- County product, 2024, Washoe County$43,717,096,000
- County product change over the prior year, Washoe County5.8 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Washoe County$149,431
Every figure in this section is published for Washoe County as a whole and is not a measurement of Reno. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
Common questions
Reno questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Reno, Nevada?
273,212, in 114,322 households. Reno city covers 108.99 square miles of land, which is 2,507 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Reno in?
Washoe County, which holds 100.0 percent of the place by area. Source: US Census Bureau, cartographic boundary file, places, 2024 vintage.
What is the median household income in Reno?
$80,760. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $548,300. Median gross rent is $1,556 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Reno businesses?
418 7(a) approvals totalling $248.0 m, across 69 lenders, median approval $250,000, plus 291 504 approvals worth $245.9 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Reno, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Reno borrowers get paid back?
Of the 66 loans that have reached a final outcome, 62 were paid in full and 4 charged off, a charge off rate of 6.1 percent. Loans still running are excluded because they have not yet succeeded or failed.
Are the county figures on this page Reno figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Washoe County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Reno.
Is zoning published for Reno?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
