Full analysis: Broward County vs Clark County Nv

Broward County finishes clearly ahead of Clark County Nv on our composite of occupancy, revenue per available night and regulation risk — and it is the calendar rather than the price tag doing the work. The twelve-month direction favours Broward County too: occupancy there moved +16.8 points while Clark County Nv moved −4 points. Broward County's listings run at 36% occupancy against 30% in Clark County Nv, worth 6 extra points of booked calendar every year. Those gaps are wide enough to survive a normal year's variance.

The two markets reach their revenue by different routes, which is what makes this pairing worth reading rather than just tabulating. Clark County Nv is the rate market: £111 a night against £102, some 8.5% more, but it converts fewer of those nights at 30% occupancy. Broward County is the volume market, filling 36% of its calendar at a lower headline price. Revenue per available night settles it: £28 in Clark County Nv against £23. Rate is what you advertise; RevPAR is what you bank.

That verdict needs a caveat, because Clark County Nv is not simply the weaker market of the two. Clark County Nv turns its rate and occupancy into £28 per available night against £23 in Broward County, a 21.3% edge on the only yield figure that nets the empty nights out. Across a full year the median Clark County Nv listing grosses £10,352 against £8,532 in Broward County. If your model leans on that dimension, the ordering above can reasonably flip.

Neither Broward County nor Clark County Nv currently has a verified short-term rental regulation record in our register, so the comparison above is a yield comparison only. Regulation is the single largest source of downside in this asset class — an unverified market is an unpriced risk, not an absent one.

The two calendars also behave differently. Broward County peaks in September at 40.4% and bottoms in November at 27.2%; Clark County Nv runs from 58.5% in August down to 33.7% in December. Broward County is the steadier of the two at 13.2 points peak-to-trough against 24.8 — easier to underwrite against a mortgage — while Clark County Nv concentrates its return into a shorter window and rewards operators who price the peak aggressively instead of holding a flat rate all year.

Who each suits, then. Broward County suits buyers who want a conventional, lightly regulated entry and whose economics survive high turnover — more bookings, more cleans, more guest contact per pound of revenue. It is also the momentum side of this pair. Clark County Nv answers to the same regulatory profile, so the split between them is operational rather than legal: it is the market for an owner who can hold rate through the shoulder season rather than discounting to fill the calendar. It is the contrarian side: buying it means buying a market that has cooled. Every figure above comes from the same Inside Airbnb snapshot pipeline on both sides, dated 2025-09, filtered to listings with at least one booking in the last twelve months. Occupancy medians are drawn from 7,350 active Broward County listings and 5,656 in Clark County Nv.
