Living in Elko County, Nevada

Should you move to Nevada?

Nevada is known for its iconic city of Las Vegas, but beyond the dazzling lights, Nevada boasts award-winning neighborhoods and stunning natural landscapes, including the Great Basin National Park and Red Rock Canyon.

Plus, the secret is out. Nevada is a very business-friendly state with affordable housing and no state income tax.

Historically, the Nevada economy relied heavily on tourism and mining. But, with the financial perks, Nevada’s two major Metros, the Las Vegas Valley and Reno, have seen expansive growth in both population and a diversifying economy.

Sparks, a Reno suburb, welcomed a Tesla Gigafactory in 2016. In January 2023, the company announced a $3.6 billion expansion of the state-of-the-art battery facility adding 3,000 more jobs. After decades of trying, Las Vegas is now home to two professional sports teams, the Raiders and Stanley Cup championship winners the Vegas Golden Knights.

Living in Nevada offers incredible outdoor activities, such as hiking in the stunning Valley of Fire State Park, skiing in the picturesque Lake Tahoe region, and exploring the vast desert landscapes. Residents can access California Beaches, the Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, and Death Valley National Park within a comfortable driving distance.

With its unique blend of natural beauty, economic opportunities, and proximity to beautiful destinations, Nevada continues to attract individuals seeking an exceptional lifestyle. Just beware of the 120-degree summers in Southern Nevada.
