Three quarters of the ZIP codes in Southern Nevada have seen home price declines year-over-year, according to a new study. Most of the ZIP codes (74 percent) that saw the largest per square foot median price decline in the valley included parts of the Las Vegas Strip where there aren’t a lot of single-family houses but an ample number of high-rise condominiums and apartments, according to a new study by the UNLV Lied Center for Real Estate.

This is part one of our four-part series on alternative economic indicators.
