I moved from California to Reno. Please don’t tell anyone else from California but Reno is really a nice place to live. I could do without all the homeless bums but it is far less than California where they are going to spend millions to build tiny homes to reward the bums.
Californians, particularly those on state-funded pensions, have been bolting for Nevada in order to avoid California income taxes. I would assume Reno is on the radar for some of these state workers.
I am a California to Las Vegas transplant myself. I could do without the bums either but I will not go back to California to live, no way, no how.
