As the real estate market continues to be challenged, Nevada County residents will continue to stay in their homes longer. With 74% of Nevada County residents owning homes and the average household income in the county at approximately $90,000 (Nevada County Economic Resource Council, California Department of Finance, Nevada County 2006 US Census numbers minus Truckee), babyboomers are becoming nesters and home remodeling is flourishing and is expected to see continual growth in the upcoming years. Money will be spent on kitchens, bathrooms, home offices, expanded living spaces, exteriors and landscaping to improve the current condition and value of their property.
