We’ve recently acquired another home in Gardnerville, Nevada ( just down the hill, and over the state line from Lake Tahoe). Same story. Gas is a buck a gallon less, there is NO STATE INCOME TAX and property taxes are so low, by comparison to CA you hardly know that they exist! The locals are 95% conservative and a lot of them routinely carry a gun. Plus the scenery is to die for. The only thing that’s really gotten hard to understand is that restaurants are all through serving dinner at 9 p.m.
Ah. I stayed in Lake Tahoe in 1984, just across the Ca-NV border. I jogged to Nevada one day to see a casino. Bought a steak dinner, didn’t gamble.
Very beautiful. Ponderosa pines. I drove all around the lake. Saw the site of the Ponderosa TV show.
