Suburb of Reno, NV
Current Resident: I find the area very quiet and mostly inhabited by the more elderly people and veterans. There are not many younger couples for a reason that I think is because the housing is so expensive many people can only afford apartments. The diversity is absolutly terrible but the area is very full of wildlife and safe but never leave small animals outside alone at night because there are coyotes.... Read 2 reviews

Town in Nevada
Current Resident: It's been a wonderful experience living here so far! The people are nice, and the location is perfect. It only takes me ten minutes to walk to the lake and five minutes to walk to restaurants. I also love just how close I am to the outdoors! A trail head is no more than a ten minute drive away. The scenery is breathtaking. The way the sun sets on the lake and gives off an alpine glow as it reflects off the mountains. like a burning crimson fire that's slowly fading into the dark....

Suburb of Las Vegas, NV
Current Resident: This is seriously the best area in Vegas now. Henderson is now aging and has run out of room for new developments (not to mention that the mountains on our side of town are much prettier!). I'm surrounded by horse ranches, lots of nature, empty space, and new buildings/infrastruture/developments. People are nice and respectful here. Summerlin is the #1 target for criminals because of it's high-profile (not to mention filled with angry/pill-popping/drunk types). I'm so glad that I moved here instead of Summerlin or Henderson!...

Current Resident: I love the town of Gardnerville. We lived in South lake tahoe for many years and made the move to gardnerville 8 years ago. I agree that there are a ton of conservative people as there is with most small towns across america, but most aren't forcing their opinions on you, I am not overly sensitive, and dont need to be surrounded by people who think like me. Not much to do, but you have Lake tahoe, Reno and Carson city close by. You have plenty of off roading in the area for atv/utv use, hiking and other outdoor activities. There are plenty of jobs in the area, but most are not high paying. This really is an excellent community for retirees and people who work from home. Gardnerville is a very clean town without vandalism and graffiti, neighborhoods are all kept very clean, they also have community clean ups for the blm land. People are moving here from California and driving the prices of homes up, so it's harder to find a place to live.... Read 25 reviews

Current Resident: Carson City has a wonderful small town vibe. Downtown is home to the state capitol and many small businesses. Some of the best food you will find is in downtown Carson! Carson City is the perfect town to access multiple different hiking/walking/biking trails. The mountains are all around you. There is the perfect amount of snow in the winter; not too much and not too little. There are four seasons to enjoy as well. Lake Tahoe is about 1 hour away and is incredibly beautiful. The biggest little city, Reno, is only 30 minutes away for all of your city needs.... Read 172 reviews

Current Resident: Minden is my quant little town just outside of the capital of Nevada. The view of the snow capped sierras can be see from all directions. The landscapes and farmlands are incredible. It is just big enough that families have opportunities in all aspects, but still small enough to feel a personal connection with those you meet.

Current Resident: I like the Sparks-Reno area as a person that has lived there for about 4 years now. It is a city in a sense that there are plenty of stores for most things you can think of as well as plenty of recreational activities to participate in. Tahoe is only about an hour away so that it always a plus. But despite being a city, the area doesn't feel too overwhelming, such as a city like Los Angeles. The only downside is there are certainly parts of the Reno-Sparks area that are more developed than others.... Read 342 reviews

Much cleaner once you start getting closer, but once you're out of the area, you pretty much are headed towards Pyramid Lake.

Current Resident: Moapa Valley is a small town with conservative views, mostly members of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. If you are in need of some grub no fear McDonalds is here, as one of the three food options you can chose from for you nutrient consuming needs. It also is one of the only places where you can look out into your backyard and not only see your lovely natural landscape but wild coyotes and aggressive quails that love to squirm their way into your warm, inviting home. Not only is it a close knit community, you never have to worry about carrying the burden of keeping a secret to yourself because every stay at home mom with the accessibility to wifi will share it for you via Facebook on Moapa valleys very own page dedicated to lie and share gossip about other moms, teenagers, and new residents, all behind the screen of course so everyone's feelings are spared, known as Moapa valley Rant and Rave.

Niche User: The atmosphere of the Carson Valley is a very active one. There are trails all over to hike while being able to view the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains. The Carson Valley is only twenty minutes away from Tahoe which allows for frequent trips to the icy blue clear lake. My parents moved to the Carson Valley before I was born and I have lived here since then except for when I go back to school at University of the Pacific for the school year. If I could choose to live here again I would definitely do that all over again. There may be mountains throughout the world, but nothing beats the Sierra Nevada's when they are covered in snow or the smell of newly fallen rain upon the hills of sagebrush.

Current Resident: I love cold springs because it's a more ideal place to raise my children and the schools are absolutely wonderful with the kids. It's a smaller community, everyone is friendly and neighborly. I feel safe about my children going outside and playing. It's also so much quieter then being in town which is consistently chaotic. There are a couple of convenient stores and a couple of restaurants. Also, there are a few nice family parks even a skate park and basketball quarts. Very family oriented and a beautiful place to raise a family. My reasoning for only four stars is because I feel that a few more things could be done for instance public transportation. If you don't have a vehicle or something happens to it and you need to get to town you're going to have a long walk ahead of yourself. Public transportation would definitely fix a huge part of any negative thoughts about cold springs. For the most part, I love cold springs and hope to see many more years to come.... Read 17 reviews

Senior: Madeira's mission of "launching women who change the world" guides every aspect of this unique educational experience. I am extremely grateful for my education and appreciate the environment Madeira fosters to make every student thrive. From small, personalized class with the modular schedule, to a tight community of both students and faculty, to worldly experiences, Madeira prepares us for the future that we will inherit. Of particular note is the Co-Curriculum program that gives us real world experiences each year -- something that a teenager cannot find anywhere else. It is extremely impressive to be able to go to a college interview or job interview and say you have worked on Capitol Hill! I think Madeira is made up of small moments - traditions, laughing in the library, baking with your teachers - that become impactful, life-changing moments at such a pivotal age. This personal attention gives us the confidence and the leadership skills to take on any issue. Life changing!... Read 106 reviews
