STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS
The State of Nevada, encompassing over
110,000 square miles, is a land of vast natural
beauty, economic diversity, and cultural
vibrancy. Known as the "Silver State" for its
historic mining legacy, Nevada today is equally
recognized for its dynamic cities, rugged
outdoor landscapes, and spirit of independence.
Anchored by metropolitan hubs like Las Vegas
and Reno, Nevada also offers a rich tapestry of
rural communities, tribal lands, and open desert
that reflect its deep Western roots.
Home to more than 3.2 million residents,
Nevada is one of the fastest-growing states in
the nation. The state features no personal
income tax, a favorable business climate, and
year-round recreational opportunities-from
world-class entertainment and dining to hiking,
skiing, and stargazing beneath some of the
clearest night skies in the U.S.
With over 300 days of sunshine annually in
many regions, Nevada's climate ranges from the
dry heat of the Mojave Desert to the four-
season beauty of the Sierra Nevada. The state is
also home to Lake Tahoe, Great Basin National
Park, Red Rock Canyon, and more than 800,000
acres of state park land.
Nevada balances innovation and tradition,
offering a high quality of life, a growing
emphasis on sustainability and technology, and
a commitment to preserving the natural and
cultural richness that makes the state truly one
of a kind.
