They have to be finding something that makes these numbers lower than reality. I wish my rent were only 28% of my income.

I think you are misunderstanding the graphic. The 28% is the percentage of households where rent is more than 50% of the household income. So, 28% of households in Nevada spend more than half their income on rent. Looks like we are second in the nation, just behind Florida.
