Lovelock city, NV in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Lovelock city is a small town in Nevada, with 1,611 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #50 of 133 ranked by population — larger than 62% of them. The median age here is 39.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Lovelock city earn a median of $41,350 a year, 47.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 47% below the $77,794 median for the 66 Nevada cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 19.2% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Lovelock city is valued at $149,700, 50.7% below the national figure and 58% below the $360,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $716 a month, 49.1% below the national figure, or roughly $8,592 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 51.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
