Carson City, NV is the capital of the state Nevada. Like many towns in Nevada, Carson City was founded in the boom days of mining. A center of silver mining, Carson City was the county seat of the former Ormsby County and was named for explorer Kit Carson. The largest nearby city to Carson City is Reno, about 30 miles to the north. Carson City is one of only two capital cities in the United States that borders another state.

Nevada's capital offers more than you might think. Carson City's rustic beginnings as a frontier town shine bright with history, museums, events and more. The Kit Carson Trail winds through one of the largest historic residential districts in the west, passing turn-of-the-century mansions, courthouses, a depot...even a brewery. The State Capitol grounds are open to the public year-round and provide a glimpse into the birth of Nevada.

Several world class golf courses provide options beyond compare. Just a stones throw from Lake Tahoe, Carson City is central for skiing and water sports too.

Higher education in Carson City is provided by Western Nevada Community College.
