I’ve Ranked the 25 Most Affordable Neighborhoods to Buy Real Estate in Nevada (as of April 2025)

Looking to invest in Nevada’s real estate market? According to the Zillow Home Value Index , these 25 neighborhoods represent the most affordable options in the Silver State as of February 2025. You’ll be surprised to discover that North Las Vegas dominates the affordable housing landscape, with 16 of the 25 least expensive neighborhoods in the state.
