Lyon County The First Territorial Legislature created Lyon County on November 24, 1861. It was one of nine original counties. At the same time, Dayton was designated the County Seat. Several changes were made to the boundaries of the County over the years; however, one of the most important occurred in 1883 when a portion of Esmeralda County was annexed. This annexation to Lyon County included part of what is known as Mason Valley. In 1911 the Nevada State Legislature designated Yerington as the County seat. Yerington is one of Nevada’s 18 incorporated municipalities.

Washoe County In its earliest stages of development, Reno was filled with an entrepreneurial spirit famous in the West. The earliest settlers were ranchers who embraced the area’s meadows and grazing lands. Next gold struck it big and then there was the silver “rush.” Through it all, Reno has been a city that has created opportunity, connected with markets via ground, rail and air, and stimulated innovation, while preserv- ing an outstanding quality of life.

Reno is the center of commerce and culture in northern Nevada, with more than 194,000 residents who enjoy life in a high desert valley on the eastern slope of the Sierra. A world-class tourist destination with a rich arts scene and year-round outdoor activities, Reno has something for everyone inside its 85.2 square miles and we are only 45 minutes away from Lake Tahoe and some of the country’s best ski resorts. People love living in the Truckee Meadows. It is a city with a rich history, known worldwide for its dynamic and vibrant downtown. Here lies a progressive and lucrative opportunity waiting for your next business development, Reno, Nevada.

Only 25 miles up Mt. Rose Hwy (NV431) is Reno’s closest connection to the lake, Incline Village was named for the Great Incline Tramway built by loggers in 1878. Today, Incline is where some of the world’s wealthiest people have built stunning mountain retreats. This eastern North Shore enclave fea- tures some of Tahoe’s most picturesque beaches, classic Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed golf courses, and an abundance of recreational choices. In summer, theatergoers congregate to see the Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival at nearby Sand Harbor, mountain bikers can get the view of their lives while rid- ing the Flume trail, and hikers can try the Tahoe Rim Trail, which is 165 miles of fun. In winter, skiers and boarders can feel like they’re skiing into the lake at Diamond Peak (in the city limits) and or get Washoe Valley views at Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe. And for those who like to try their hand at gaming, there are four casinos from which to choose between Crystal Bay and Incline.
