  2. Fewer people are moving to Reno-Sparks, likely because of the high cost of living. The drop in new residents is noticeable and home sales have seen a 16 percent decrease over the last year. There are predictions that small businesses, especially those with low profit margins, will see a negative impact from the labor shortage. (ThisisReno)
