A typical home is worth about $756,000.

HUD's fair-market rent for a 2-bedroom in Lyon County is $1,279 a month. That is the county number, not an apartment listing in Smith Valley. It runs from October 2026 through September 2027.

In the Reno, NV metro area, prices sit at 101.0 when the U.S. average is 100. That is a 2024 BEA index.

In July 2026, a typical Nevada home paid 12.77¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Smith Valley's bill.
