Nice. I really want to visit Reno
I’m moving to Reno from Las Vegas soon for work, your channel is helping a ton!
Glad to hear it.
I’ve see over 3 feet several times on one snow fall, like every ten tears or so.
Reno does get some pretty good dumps of snow now and then. But would you say that the 3 feet of snow you've seen melts off pretty quickly?
Music sucks get something better I’m serious
an ice rink
Actually Reno's only indoor year round ice rink, Reno Ice, is about 2 miles from Arrow Creek. The Grand Sierra Resort opens up a small outdoor rink during the winter holidays season.
Does it snow more in Reno or Carson
They're about the same for snow. Elevation is pretty much the same and they are only separated by about 20 miles so most snow storms that come through generally hit both Reno and Carson. Sometimes Reno is hit with more snow and sometimes Carson.
NO PRO'S--CON'S: lousy street planning, narrow streets, narrow lots. Bad resident street parking, short drive ways, lousy street lighting, over run with apartments, a bed room community so when the economy crashes so will Reno but really bad, People every where,One Freeway poorly planned like the streets, running out of sewage plant, New comers coming here from big cities bring their rude ways, No state tax but city taxes will be rising as cities need money, high rent going up, high home prices that are over priced for locals, mainly low paying jobs, city council little town mind set where as this is not a little city, If Lake Tahoe water ever goes away so will Reno, lack oof police officers, lack of high way patrol, gas prices higher than Carson city?, Lack of lakes, campgrounds and camping unless you drive to California, Trasg from Citues in California is being transported to Nevada, ... In the the last 10 years Reno and Washoe County are going to ruin...By the way I bought my house in Damonte Ranch eight years ago, alll down hill since then. I stay her because this is where my wife's family lives brothers sisters son etc.
Much respect! The first time I saw lightning strike I saw it underground Six deep feet below the street The sky came crashing down For a second that place was lost in space Then everything went black I left that basement burning And I never went back The second time I saw it strike I saw it at sea It lit up all the fish like rain And rained them down on me For a second that boat was still afloat Then everything went black Left it underwater And I never went back Hey, hey, hey But I like it when that lightning comes Hey, hey, hey Yes I like it a lot Hey, hey, hey Yes, I'm jumping like a jumping jack I'm dancing, screaming, itching, squealing, fevered Feeling hot, hot, hot The third time I saw lightning strike It hit me in bed It threw me around And left me for dead For a second that room was on the moon Then everything went black I left that house on fire And I never went back Hey, hey, hey But I like it when that lightning comes Hey, hey, hey Yes I like it a lot Hey, hey, hey Yes, I'm jumping like a jumping jack Dancing, screaming, itching, squealing, fevered Feeling hot, hot, hot Hot, hot, hot Hot, hot, hot
Yep, it's a good song!
Hi, Reno experiencing a drought?
Not too bad this year. We had a super wet December so the snow pack was good.
Hello. Is it snowy right now? Is so, a a little or a lot? We’re looking for an Airbnb not too expensive in a snowy place to stay at. So I’m looking around. 😊
It's snowy in the mountains, but not in the city right now. No snow in the immediate forecast. You could try Truckee Ca or Lake Tahoe if you want snowy.
Well, the name of the State where you live is Nevada (Snowy in spanish) So there's no need to ask that question lol
Aun que el estado se llama Nevada, no todos los partes del estado reciban nieve. Por ejemplo, Las Vegas. Pero aqui en Reno, a veces tenemos mucho y a veces poquito. I was always told as a kid in school that Nevada meant snow capped mountains lol : ) I guess that was someone's interpretation.
La verdad yo no entendía muy bien por qué habían nombrado así al Estado, lo único que sé de Nevada es que es un desierto pero ahora que me dices su significado tiene sentido para mí
This is exactly why I want to leave Michigan. I hate snow. I love Nevada but maybe I should consider the south like the Vegas area.
Southern NV is great, as long as you're ok with blistering hot summers.
Southern Nevada is a shit hole.. it’s gotten even worse since so many people moved there
Reno is better. Snow in Reno is nothing compared to Michigan. It doesn’t get as freezing. People still wear shorts and tshirt in the winter.
Am think adout moving from Las Vegas to reno
Reno is much smaller than Vegas, cooler in the Winter, but similar in many ways as well.
I enjoyed your video but had to laugh when you talked about getting rain. It’s literally one of the driest places in the country.
The Cure great choice.
Thanks
I’ve lived in Reno since 1988. And some winters you get practically nothing. But every ten year or so there is a lot of snow. Mid 2000s twelve feet up to the roof line. Early 1990s fifteen feet, I dug a tunnel from the garage door to the street to get outside to play. Some decent years in the 2010s but nothing big to mention. As a high desert it’s always cold and windy but because of natural drought and the planets ever changing climate this area has been getting dryer for the last 2000 years or so. Look on google earth and you will see tons of dry lake beds all over Nevada. Most of Nevada was ancient lake Lahonton . Lush, green and had abundant water. Now it’s just the opposite.
The state fossil the Ichthyosaur found out in the desert was a fish, yes things are ever changing.
Im in the bay area and would want to live out there. But i wish to know what are the Mexican communities?
Hola Jaunito, the main barrio that is sometimes referred to as Reno's little Mexico is the Neil Road Grove street area. It is pretty central just South East of downtown and south of the airport. There are many Latino stores on Wells Avenue, but those also blend with the Midtown area. Here is a list of a few Mexican restaurants with music and events : Senor Tequilas La Fonda Tacos Los Campsinos Tacos Jalisco La Chiquita Carniceria Sambers - known for their menudo. Como Reno es mas pequeno que SF y el Bay, no hay tantas comunidades que son exclusivas Mexicanas. Pero que hay, son buena gente en muchos barios : )
@J Henry2508 lol call the blacks when you need anything done okay.
the section is mostly the working-class of Reno but it is so close to downtown also tons of stores also near major highways and not too far from Lake Tahoe
Yep, that pretty much sums it up.
Try as you might to describe the breath-taking surroundings of Reno, nothing can match the IRL experience of being there.
Reno’s biggest opportunity: Capitalizing on the California exodus.
The AQI is fantastic compared to CA.
Except when all the smoke blows over from CA fires.
Does it snow every year?
Yes. It will snow in Reno usually 2 or 3 times a winter. Of course some winters are wetter than others and sometimes we barely get any but it's pretty safe to say that there will be some sort of snow every winter. All the snow from when I made this video a couple of weeks ago is gone and the high temps this week are in the mid 50's and lows at night are down into the 20's.
What is the washoe lake area like? Is the lake a dustbowl in the summer? Do they restock fish every year? What is it like to live in that area?
Washoe Lake itself is small and shallow and the water is not pristine like Lake Tahoe. The beaches are sandy, but like Pyramid Lake, there are no trees for shade. Washoe Lake is good for Jet Skiis and for Wind Water Sports as it can get windy often in Washoe Valley. Washoe Valley neighborhood wise - yes can be dusty because of the wind and it is desert with lots of dry dirt and sage brush. There are different parts of Washoe Valley - some sections are mobile homes mostly the North end. More towards the South end or on the West side of old Hwy 395 (Nearer to the base of the Mountains) there are homes priced in the Millions. There is a small section of the valley that has convenience stores, gas etc. I have no idea about fish there. I don't think there is a lot as I have not seen many if any fisherman when I have been there. Pyramid Lake is the place to fish. I hope this helps.
Looking to move there from Michigan. Guess I'm not losing out on snow really then lol
A lot of it is melted already and will probably be all gone in a couple of days except for in the mountains. Daily high temps this week are forecasted to be in the mid 40's. I imagine it's colder in Michigan and when it snows probably sticks around for a while?
Not as much and not as cold.
hi i live there to so it snowed alot and i went sledding lol
I went sledding too. Gotta take advantage of the snow before it melts!
Reno is unbearably hot in the summer and unbearably cold in the winter... the humidity is very low... your hair and skin will be dried out ... you'll look old and jaded!
Unbearably hot you say? Take a hike down to vegas baby and I’ll tell ya about some horrid heat, 99 sounds like a dream compared to the 110+ we get for weeks and high 90s at night 😂 but honestly if mid 100s is the highest Reno gets with 70 degree nights I’ll take it!
True just moved here
I'm leaving reno after living here since 93. It's become extremely expensive, over crowded, degraded school system, large homeless population, high suicide and divorce rate. And if you're a believer in Christ like our family, the percentage of believers here is a staggering 2%. Even while making a six figure income, it has become increasingly difficult. After seeing homes in small suburbs of san Antonio in great neighborhoods for half the price and the cost of living 22% lower, we've decided to move. GL to everyone who decides to move here. It's not for us anymore. I forgot to mention construction season is year round...
Reno is a great place to live maybe that 2% is the reason why people are open minded towards cultures other than their own and non judge mental.
Is there a bubble in Reno real estate?
www.rgj.com/story/opinion/voices/2020/09/17/not-housing-bubble-mike-kazmierski/3482883001/
Thanks for the infos.
I love how u start out by pronouncing Nevada right!!!!!
Much thanks for the Relocation Guide!
Of course!
Great review. Thanks!
Thank you. Glad you found it helpful !
You know Mariah? She's a great gal.
How about Spanish springs?
Spanish Springs is just north of Reno. It is a suburb of the city of Sparks. You pass through it on the way to Pyramid Lake. It's close to moon rocks for off roading. There is the Red Hawk Golf course out there and a sports complex with several soccer/football fields and baseball diamonds. There is a fair bit of new home construction. The farther north you go, there are more homes with larger lots and horse properties. One thing to consider if moving to Spanish Springs is that the main roadway out there is Pyramid Hwy which has stop lights ( and Vista Blvd ) There is no freeway out that way. Still the commute time is relatively short depending on what you're used to. There are restaurants and shopping. Desert landscape, not wooded. Hope this helps :)
good video, it would be great if you can also put the bankrate calculator as a link next to your relocation guide too?
Of course, makes sense to have it there. I added it to the description. Thanks for the suggestion!
Thank you for sharing. It's vital to evaluate the cost of living.
Good use of the numbers and charts. Thanks
Great thumbnail and awesome video, love a realtor who knows their numbers! Thanks for sharing Larene
Thanks for pointing out the numbers when it comes to Reno cost of living, Larene!
Beautiful place, thanks for sharing!
I heard Reno is going crazy with multiple offers.
Thanks for the overview on Reno's layout, Larene!
I like the Breakdown of the streets and highways- makes someone coming to down feel a bit more comfortable -Great Explanation !
Is Reno a diverse city?
It is becoming more diverse. What it has to offer is being close to the mountains for outdoor adventures rather than arts. Growing up here, the Casinos were the main industry and it was a town for older people. When gambling became legal in other places Reno had to diversify it's industry and it now has more to offer and is attracting a more diverse population.
Love your videos! I’m relocating to Reno next month and wish that I’d stumbled upon your channel sooner, was looking for an agent. Look forward to more content and encourage you to use these as a marketing tool!
Thanks! I am working on more content, but it's time consuming. I'm sorry I didn't see your comment sooner. I hope you found a great agent and are loving your new home in Reno!

Great job on this video Larene! I gotta say I enjoy your sense humor....thanks for the info!
Thanks David!
If you check the internet, many experts disagree with you.
Yes, there are varying opinions on how the real estate market will fair coming out of this pandemic, but the fact that the circumstances going in were different than the previous downturn remains true. I make no claims to know what will happen, but I choose to remain hopeful. : )
@@renosparkslivingwithlarene5283 Being hopeful and being more probable are two different things. Also, no two situations are ever the same. Only question is how much they are different. Of course, two different situations can lead to similar results.
Well done. Very informative
