贫困与住房
房屋所有权创造了更稳定的家庭和社区。研究表明，房主更有可能在他们的社区和社区进行投资。这美国社区调查显示，在里诺，2021 年有能力购买价格适中房屋的家庭比以往任何时候都少。这不仅会影响为个人稳定而寻求住房的个人，而且由此产生的不稳定所产生的连锁反应也很广泛——从员工流动增加的行业、学校的入学率波动到我们当地社区普遍缺乏投资和连通性.
造成贫困和缺乏经济适用房的原因很多且复杂，但归根结底是一个简单的事实，即人们的收入跟不上住房成本。为了应对这些压力，采取多管齐下的方法——从为毕业生提供更好的教育和劳动力发展机会到增加各级住房选择的库存。

DIGGING INTO THE DATA
The data on the economic and social impact of arts and culture together paint a more complete picture of how they affect the Truckee Meadows community. This information includes data from grant distribution reports, organization-submitted data, and the Arts & Economic Prosperity study. The arts sector was one of the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to recover slowly, as shown by the indicators.
Creative Industries Economic Impact
Sales, location quotient (LQ), and jobs data about Washoe County's top creative industries provides insights into their economic impact. For example, high sales, LQ, and job count indicate a dominant and potentially growing sector. LQ measures industry concentration compared to the national average. An LQ greater than 1 suggests specialization and economic strength. Each industry's circle size reflects its LQ — the larger the circle, the higher the LQ.

贫困儿童
许多研究表明，家庭收入会影响孩子的幸福感。与同龄人相比，贫困儿童更容易出现低出生体重和铅中毒等身体健康问题，也更容易出现行为和情绪问题。贫困儿童也往往表现出认知困难，如成绩测试分数所示，并且不太可能完成基础教育。
该指标显示生活在联邦贫困线以下的 18 岁以下人口的百分比。
A PALETTE FOR PROSPERITY
The Arts and Economic Prosperity 6 study (AEP6), conducted by Americans for the Arts, evaluates the economic impact of the nonprofit arts and culture industry across the United States. The City of Reno participated in the study, contributing data and insights to assess the economic impact of its nonprofit arts and culture sector, showcasing the significant role arts play in its local economy.

$84.4 MILLION

$63.1 MILLION
Household Income for local residents
$21.6 MILLION

Creative Vitality Index
The Creative Vitality Index (CVI) measures the concentration of creative activities in a specific region compared to the national average. It combines data on creative industry sales, employment, and cultural nonprofit revenue. A higher CVI suggests a greater concentration of creative activity and a potentially healthier creative economy. This index helps communities assess their creative economy's strengths, identify areas for growth, and track progress over time.

RESOURCES
COMMUNITY IN ACTION
Check out the various ongoing programs and groups dedicated to enhancing arts and cultural vibrancy in the Truckee Meadows community.
CITY OF RENO
Each year, the City of Reno Arts & Culture Commission grants funds to various local art organizations, totaling around $200,000 annually. In 2022, these funds supported 793 artists and served 72,683 audience members.
The City displays close to 200 pieces of outdoor public art and 75 pieces in the Metro Collection at City Hall and McKinley Arts & Culture Center.
The City of Reno’s Art Signals program creates original artwork on signal boxes around town. Nearly 100 signal box murals have been completed by local artists.
CITY OF SPARKS
The City of Sparks Arts and Culture Advisory Committee supports the community by facilitating investment in the arts and culture to nurture creative communities, enhance the quality of life, and encourage civic pride. Some of its key initiatives include Spark the Imagination workshops for children, operating the Sparks Heritage Museum, and hosting the Sparks Art Walk. The Sparks Art Walk is a curated collection of regularly rotating installed art throughout Victorian Square in downtown Sparks. This initiative aims to create attractive public environments, celebrate Sparks’ historical and aesthetic values, and stimulate the downtown economy through increased pedestrian activity, events, and education.
ARTRAIL
Washoe County developed a public participatory experience through the ArTrail in partnership with Burning Man and multiple community partners. The ArTrail celebrates cultural, historical, and artistic landmarks in the region. The ArTrail routes along the Truckee River through the cities of Reno and Sparks turn north to historic Lake Pyramid on Paiute Tribal land and continue to the Gerlach area in the far northern region of Washoe County, spanning over 200 miles.

租金负担
将高比例的家庭收入用于房租可能会造成经济困难，尤其是对于低收入的租房者。在收入有限的情况下，支付高额租金可能没有足够的钱来支付其他费用，例如食品、交通和医疗保健。此外，高租金降低了家庭每月可用于储蓄的收入比例。在 Washoe 县，几乎一半的租房者被认为是“有房租负担”的，年轻人 (58%) 和我们的老年人 (60%) 的这个数字更高。
该指标显示了“有租金负担”的租户的百分比——即那些将家庭收入的 30% 或更多用于租金的租户。租金成本包括租金和公用事业（电力、天然气、其他燃料、水和下水道）。
