Statusgap — no live NV state source giving incorporated-city polygons specifically
Notea candidate layer (gis.dot.nv.gov/.../GeoHub/Cities/FeatureServer/0, count=1,196) is a point layer of "currently or previously populated places" from 1980s/2003 USGS GNIS data — includes unincorporated towns and historic places, no incorporation-status field to filter on. Recommend Census TIGER Places filtered by LSAD=25 as a fallback, or per-city GIS portals (Clark, Washoe, Carson City) as a last resort.
School Districts
Statusno live NV DOE GIS/API (nevadareportcard.nv.gov is a client-rendered SPA whose API endpoint returns an HTML shell, not JSON)
FallbackCensus TIGERweb (tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/rest/services/TIGERweb/School/MapServer/0, filter STATE='32') — verified 17, matching NV's 17 county-wide districts exactly.
Educational Region
Statusconfirmed none — consistent with NV's county-wide district model (each of the 17 districts is coextensive with a county).
Population
Statusnot yet ingested
Recommended SourceUS Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP) — https://api.census.gov/data/{year}/pep/population — joins on the county FIPS from the counties source above.
