I've lived just over half my life in and around Reno, and currently live less than an hour away. Reno isn't the town it used to be. In some ways it's better (Downtown/Midtown is pretty good these days) and in some ways it's much worse- sprawl and traffic being my chief complaints. But heading there for Sushi is always worth it. Good times and some great memories made and remembered.
- marssaxman 2y agoIt was half my life ago that I moved away! I have heard that the place has changed a lot, and I imagine that if I were living there today I would find rather more than the wasteland of strip malls and casinos I remember from the 20th century. I remember the desert with great fondness: I didn't really make any human friends in Reno, but my sense of connection to the wild, wide-open basin and range country spreading out beyond the city will probably last a lifetime.
- geocrasher 2y agoYep Reno's changed a lot. Thankfully, the desert hasn't. I just bought a place E of Reno out in the desert and I'm actually surrounded by desert on all sides for at least a few hundred feet. It's epic! Thanks for the chat :)
