Ready to move elsewhere

I moved to Reno a year ago with my job. The proximity to Tahoe is the only thing I've found to be positive about this city. It seems that the city's street system hasn't been able to keep up with the population boom over the last few years. I-80 has been under construction in Sparks for god knows how long, and seems like it will never be completed. Traffic can be terrible at times for a small city. Reno has the most inconsiderate and rude drivers I've ever seen in the 7 states I've lived in over the past 12 years. Once out of the car, the people here are actually fairly nice. Downtown Reno is full of rundown motels, casinos, and trashy people contributing to Nevada's roaring crystal meth problem. Overall, the locals seem uneducated and crude, but friendly. Reno hasn't been the worst place I've ever lived, but I'll be happy to see it in the rear view mirror.
