Looking to buy a home in Carson City, Nevada?

Today, Carson City serves as the Nevada state capitol and is only 30 minutes south of Reno, surrounded by the spectacular Sierra Nevadas and Lake Tahoe 30 minutes to the west. Carson City still acts as the passenger center it was during its formation, with residents of Virginia City 20 minutes to the east and residents of Minden and Gardnerville 25 minutes south, passing through often en route to Reno or Sparks.

The capitol's historic past is kept alive through the Nevada State Capitol Building, Nevada Supreme Court, and Nevada Legislature Building all in the center of downtown Carson City. For a thorough look into the history of Carson, head to the Nevada State Museum, boasting 11,000 square feet of exhibit space. The Nevada State Railroad Museum displays railroad cars from the Virginia & Truckee Railroad and delves into the compelling history of Carson's formation. The Bowers Mansion Regional Park has maintained and restored the Bowers Mansion, once a showcase of the wealthy elite in the late 1800s. Now, the park offers a playground, swimming pool, and seasonal concert series.

Hit the Carson City Fairgrounds for the annual Carson City Fair every summer, or enjoy the neighboring Fuji Park and Baily Fishing Pond year-round.

Students of Carson Middle School and Eagle Valley Middle School will graduate into Carson High School. Carson High is an excellent school serving students of the community. The home of the Senators provides wonderful sports facilities to students alongside an education that prepares students for college-level courses. Higher education is offered through Western Nevada College right in Carson City, or head north to Reno to the University of Nevada, Reno. The Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center Campus calls Carson City home and is only a 30-minute commute to either Reno or Lake Tahoe.

Carson City is an excellent place for families with an abundance of stores, businesses, and outdoor recreation. Clear Creek Plaza offers a Walmart Supercenter and Trader Joes. Carson Valley Plaza across the street features Best Buy, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Marshalls. Eagle Station Shopping Center has Raley’s, Kohl’s, JCPenney, and Ross, in addition to popular restaurants like Buffalo Wild Wings.

When you’re looking for something to do around town, check for movie times at Galaxy Fandango Theater. Head across the street to Casino Fandango to hit the tables or slots if you’re feeling lucky. Finally, golfers can enjoy up to six public golf courses like the beloved Silver Oak Golf Course. Silver Oak Golf Course is a favorite because of its varied scenery throughout the course. The first nine holes provide incredible views of the Carson Valley while the last nine feature glimpses of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the impeccable homes surrounding the golf course.

Visited Minden and it was a great place. Carson is more centrally located. Love the proximity to Tahoe. Now got to talk the wife into moving there.

Abundance of stores...lol compared to what? Kind of like locals saying your winters are mild! lol
Gambling...drunks..drug addicts and homeless getting worse.
Truth...small town busy-bodies, cold AF weather with consistent high-winds. House pricing outrageous! Nothing shy of political debates amongst the locals, and small-minded people consume the area.
