Selection process background
Nevada OZ 2.0 Selection Process
Nevada has 195 census tracts eligible for Opportunity Zone 2.0, per the Governor's Office of Economic Development (GOED), citing Census Bureau 2020–2024 American Community Survey data. Under the 25% federal cap, Governor Joe Lombardo may nominate up to 49 tracts. The state currently has 61 OZ 1.0 zones, selected in June 2018; those zones remain in effect through December 31, 2028. New OZ 2.0 zones take effect January 1, 2027.
What GOED has published: GOED's Opportunity Zones page is the official state resource for OZ 2.0. It says the draft nomination list was developed with local governments, regional economic development organizations, tribal nations, and business and community leaders, and it links:
- A draft nomination map marking 49 tracts: 44 "Listed" tracts, all on Treasury's September 23, 2026 eligible list (14 rural by Treasury's flags), and 5 "Highlighted" tracts that are not on Treasury's eligible list
- A public-comment form. GOED asked for comments on Draft 1 by September 25, 2026 and said a second comment period was expected after that
Filing status (checked October 17, 2026): GOED said Nevada would finalize its submission by September 28, 2026. We have not found an official Nevada or Treasury source confirming a submitted slate or a final tract count. A state that has not filed may use the single 30-day extension under Rev. Proc. 2026-14, through October 28, 2026. The draft is not a nomination, so we do not mark these tracts as nominated.
Earlier check (August 27, 2026): the Department of Business & Industry's Opportunity Zones page restates the 2018 selection of 61 tracts and does not describe the 2026 process; GOED now hosts it.
We'll update this page when Nevada confirms its submission. If you're aware of a source we've missed, please contact us.

Where Nevada is in the process
Nevada census tracts list: Opportunity Zones by county
Every Nevada census tract that is either on the OZ 2.0 eligibility list (195 tracts, IRS Rev. Proc. 2026-14 appendix) or inside a current (2018) Opportunity Zone, grouped by county. The CDFI Fund's 2018 list has 61 Nevada tracts (60 low-income, 1 contiguous), numbered by the 2010 census. GEOIDs here are 2020-census tracts, so we matched the 2018 zones to 2020 tracts with the Census relationship file: they cover 69 2020 tracts fully and 2 partly (71 in this table). "Partly" means only part of the 2020 tract was in a 2018 zone (how we match).
Eligible doesn't mean certified. The governor can nominate up to 49 of these tracts (the 25% cap). The federal nomination window closed September 28, 2026 (a state that takes the single 30-day extension has until October 28), and certified OZ 2.0 zones take effect January 1, 2027. See which states have filed on the OZ 2.0 nomination tracker, check exact boundaries on the eligible-tract map, and read how to plan an OZ investment for January 2027.
