Carson City has been ranked among the top 50 communities in the West for business, jobs, and lifestyle, and Nevada ranks #7 nationally for business tax climate.

The city has more than 22,500 housing units — over half single-family homes, about 60% owner-occupied — with a vacancy rate under 5%. Nearly 80% of homes have been built since 1970, and a 2,000-square-foot home runs around $497,000. Senior apartment complexes and an over-55 single-family community are also available.
