"Nevada’s casino-resorts become more imaginative and lavish every year. Visitors can spend the night in a pyramid, a penthouse suite overlooking breathtaking Lake Tahoe, or a rustic bed and breakfast in a ghost town.
So, if it’s the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas or Reno, the tranquility of Lake Tahoe, or experiencing the true history of the Old West, Nevada is home to a variety of resort options sure to fit your style.
Nevada is steeped in variety. Living in the "Silver State" offers the excitement and sophistication of urban areas, or peaceful, hometown living in one of Nevada's rural communities. All of Nevada's communities are surrounded by spectacular mountains, lakes, streams, lush valleys and high desert scenery - a perfect backdrop for world-class outdoor recreation opportunities.
Nevada's arts, cultural, and entertainment environment is rich and diverse. Additionally, Nevada's location provides for easy access by car or air to some of the largest, most sophisticated metropolitan areas in the world.
Nevada - the Spanish word for "snow capped" - is relatively dry. Annual precipitation is typically 15 inches or less reaching a low of four inches in the southern region of the state.
Northern Nevada enjoys four distinct seasons.
The sun shines more than 300 days per year and the winter days are usually crisp, white, and sunny. Temperatures in southern Nevada average 10 to 15 degrees higher than Northern Nevada. The state's overall lack of humidity gives the weather a more moderate feel allowing for outdoor activities all year.
Since 1967, the Nevada Arts Council has worked to enrich the cultural life of the state through leadership that preserves, supports, strengthens and makes accessible excellence in the arts to all Nevadans. As a result, Nevada's cultural climate is as rich and diverse as our west-coast neighbors. Broadway shows often stop first in Nevada before continuing to San Francisco. Whether it's the performing arts, visual arts and the humanities - Nevada has it all.
Whether it's because of Nevada's rare variety of landscape, unlimited selection of outdoor activities and cultural events, or attractive tax climate, the Silver State has the distinction of being the fastest growing state in the nation."
