Lyon ZIP codes — Lyon County, Nevada

Lyon County is a small city in Nevada, with 60,630 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 42.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Lyon County earn a median of $73,460 a year, 6.5% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 11% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lyon County is valued at $342,600, 12.9% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,259 a month, 10.5% below the national figure, or roughly $15,108 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.6% 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 4.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 76.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
