City of Reno -
11/8/2010I am a single woman that moved here from Michigan in 2006. I moved a mile from town into the Old Southwest area. The Airport in only 10 minutes away. The people are very friendly and I soon became involved in the Art Scene and met numerous friends. Downtown has become increasingly better since I arrived. The river walk on the Truckee River and Artown are very popular, as is kayaking. I ride my bike downtown all the time and I do not feel threatened in any way. They just recently put in Bike lanes on the main streets for cyclists. There are many things to do downtown without even walking into a casino. Many fun, delicious and entertaining restaurants right on the River. I am a working professional that loves the outdoors and enjoys the beautiful mountains that surround the city. Yes it snows and yes it gets hot, we deal with it, and the sun shines just about every single day.
Lake Tahoe and Pyramid Lake are only 45 minutes away to some of the best boating and fishing anywhere, I know because I've done it. The California border is 20 minutes away to more lakes and good fishing and boating. Now is a good time to buy a home if your looking. No State Tax. I can't even think of anything negative to say about Reno. It's the Best 'Biggest Little City' around.
