Carson City, NV. You have access to Sierra Nevada Mountains that cross into California. Good thing is that you live in a state with low taxes, offering an array of outdoor activities, whether you hunt, fish, hike, ski, etc...
It's a small community and still is the State Capital of Nevada. The whether is seasonal. You get snow, rain, heat, etc...
There are a variety of lakes, and in the summer you can go to the mountains to cool off in one of the mountain rivers or lakes. Overall, it's a conservative community in northern Nevada. It's nothing like Las Vegas.
Never considered Carson City , NV... you make it saound promising... thank you...
My aunt & uncle built a home in Carson City. Nice community. He loves trains so the museum is a plus!
Carson City?
Um, hate to tell you, but with all the Kalifornicators moving in the last few years CC is beginning to lean so far left it may fall over!
Coupled with the liberals of Lost Wages (Vegas) and Reno/Sparks western Nevada is in real trouble.
Look for Lost Wages to take total control of the entire state by the next legislative session. They are itching to move the capitol, and enact a full time legislature. Then Nevada will be just like the Kalifornia they escaped, but miss so much!
If you are a conservative you need to head toward the east side of Nevada as quickly as you can.
