📝 How we sourced this

Population, income, and housing-cost figures come from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates (B-series tables). Crime data uses FBI UCR; climate uses NOAA Climate Normals; school counts come from NCES Common Core of Data; permits use the Census Building Permits Survey (BPS). See our methodology page for the full ETL pipeline and OMB / FIPS join keys.

Data Snapshot: Glenbrook, NV

Nevada's Glenbrook is a small town, with 274 residents per the latest Census Bureau ACS figures. Glenbrook households earn a median of $223,942 annually, placing it in the top quartile of U.S. cities for household income, with a poverty rate of 0.0%. Home values in Glenbrook sit on the ACS top-code of $2,000,000+; the true median is at least that high and is not published exactly, and the median resident age is 64.5 years. 72.5% of adults here have a bachelor's degree or higher; 45.5% of working-age residents are in the labor force.

The annual average temperature per NOAA climate normals runs 46.0°F with 18.5 inches of precipitation per year.

Nevada tracks close to the national cost-of-living baseline: the state registers 100.0 on a 100-equals-national-average index (Near Average) per BEA Regional Price Parities 2024. HUD Fair Market Rent for a typical two-bedroom in this state is $1,428 per month. Monthly utility costs average around $190 across Nevada, per EIA 2023 residential energy estimates. FEMA's National Risk Index rates natural-hazard exposure at 46.2 out of 100 (Low).

A decision-led reading path

Useful questions to ask of Glenbrook's data

How this reading path is ordered

This is not a composite city score. It is a city-specific route through the available public records, ordered for this profile so the page starts with questions the joined data can actually answer. The route here runs from climate and hazard context to housing and income to work and mobility to comparison shortlist; another city can have a different sequence or fewer supported layers because the source joins are not uniform.

For Glenbrook, city-specific coverage includes commute-mode shares. No matched row is reported here for within-city Census tract profiles, annual population history, FBI reported-crime rates, local building permits, matched public-school count; the page leaves those layers out instead of substituting a statewide or national value.

Question 1

What physical conditions frame life in Glenbrook?

NOAA normals put the annual mean temperature at 46.0°F, with 18.5 inches of precipitation. FEMA's state-averaged National Risk Index score for Nevada is 46.2 out of 100. Climate normals describe long-run weather; the FEMA score on PlainCities is a state average of county NRI inputs and combines hazards, exposure, vulnerability, and resilience.

The two sources should not be blended into one comfort or safety score. Use the climate values for baseline conditions and the risk index as a prompt to inspect specific hazards, insurance, and local emergency guidance for a particular address.

Read the source boundaries →

Question 2

How far does income reach against housing in Glenbrook?

The home-value-to-income reference is comparatively stretched: the ACS median home value is 8.9 times median household income. The ACS poverty estimate is 0.0%, which keeps the citywide median from describing every household.

This is a citywide price-to-income reference, not a mortgage-affordability test; it does not include interest rates, taxes, insurance, household size, or an individual buyer's down payment. Housing value is high relative to the citywide income median. That flags a question for comparison, not a verdict: tenure, household composition, financing costs, and the age of the ACS estimate can all change what a resident actually pays.

Compare the housing trade-off →

3. Work and mobility

What does the journey to work look like in Glenbrook?

Mode share answers how workers usually travel; it does not measure congestion, reliability, distance to a particular job, or the quality of transit service. Remote work has a visible role in the local pattern. That can reduce commute exposure for some workers, but it says nothing about job availability or broadband quality; read it alongside income and housing rather than as a stand-alone lifestyle score.

Working from home is the largest reported mode at 64.0%. A reliable mean commute time is not available for this row, so the mode shares carry the comparison.

Compare commute patterns →

Question 4

Which cities make useful reference points for Glenbrook?

Within Nevada, the closest population matches are Blue Diamond (270 residents, $85,227 income); Ruth (266 residents); Dyer (303 residents, $60,192 income). Outside the state, the closest population matches in this dataset are Repton, AL (274 residents); Lodoga, CA (274 residents); Louviers, CO (274 residents). A third, income-matched reference set of 6 out-of-state cities sits in the income neighbourhood chart near the Place Dossier plate. These are mechanical peer sets, not claims that the places share a labor market, climate, culture, or metro context.

Use the in-state set to hold state policy and broad price conditions more nearly constant. Use the nationwide size set to ask whether cities with a similar resident count produce different housing, income, or commute outcomes. The income set is a third lens, deliberately separate from population matching.

At 8.9×, Glenbrook sits in the pressured band: national rank #15,230 of 15,516 and #11,149 of 11,323micro cities (under 10,000). Housing value is high relative to the citywide income median, a comparison flag, not a verdict on any household.

How this ratio is calculated

Ratio = Census ACS 2023 median home value ÷ median household income for cities with both fields and population ≥ 1,000. Rank 1 = lowest ratio (most compact). Bands match the fleet affordability thresholds used on guides (<3.0 / 3.0–5.0 / >5.0). This is not a mortgage payment estimate and does not include rates, taxes, insurance, or down payment.
