The quick read
Reading Paradise, NV beyond the headline numbers
Paradise sits inside Clark County, Nevada, at roughly 36.10°N, -115.15°W. Its population of 223,167 and $59,190 median household income are the two most quoted figures, but in isolation they hide the shape of the city. A median home value of $384,200 paired with median rent of $1,372 is the starting point for a price-to-income read that tells you how stretched a typical household is before any other cost of living factor is considered. The 17.6% poverty rate next to that income figure is the better signal, two cities with identical medians can have very different lived realities depending on the income distribution underneath.
Health and healthcare access are the next layer most residents and prospective movers actually care about. CDC PLACES indicators for Paradise show the highest-prevalence measure is short sleep duration at 42.4%, followed by high blood pressure at 35.4%.
Areazine reconstructs these layers from U.S. Census ACS (place-level economics and demographics), CDC PLACES, and CMS Hospital Compare, each updated on its own cadence, and pairs them with live alerts from FEMA, NOAA, FDA, and CPSC scoped to the Paradise area. The comparison bars next to each metric anchor the number against a national reference, which is the fastest way to tell whether Paradise is an outlier on a given dimension before drilling into the raw value.
