Nev. Admin. Code ch. 118B § 118B.320 establishes a broad definition of 'income' for purposes of Nevada's manufactured housing regulations, encompassing virtually all forms of money received by a person. The definition reaches beyond traditional wages and salaries to include passive income, government benefits, educational assistance, gambling winnings, gifts, and inheritances, among many other sources. This comprehensive scope means that nearly any financial inflow a household receives may be counted when income is evaluated under Chapter 118B.

Under Nev. Admin. Code ch. 118B § 118B.320, operators of manufactured housing communities who must assess a resident's or applicant's income for any regulatory purpose are expected to account for all 25 enumerated categories, not just employment earnings. Compliant operators typically collect documentation that reflects the full range of income sources — such as benefit award letters, pension statements, and tax records — rather than relying solely on pay stubs. Overlooking non-wage income sources listed in § 118B.320 could result in an inaccurate income determination that affects regulatory compliance.

Nev. Admin. Code ch. 118B § 118B.320 defines income broadly, which means residents of manufactured housing communities should be aware that government benefits, child support, pensions, scholarships, and even gifts or inheritances may be counted alongside wages when income is calculated under Nevada's manufactured housing rules. If a tenant believes their income has been calculated incorrectly — for example, by including or excluding a category in a way that affects their rights or eligibility — they may consider raising that concern with the Nevada manufactured housing authority or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Chapter 118B. Understanding exactly which income sources fall under § 118B.320 can be important when responding to any income-related determination made by a community operator.
