Downtown Reno
Downtown Reno is the part of town that still has the arch, the neon, and the honest casino musk. Circus Circus and the Eldorado fused into one carpeted labyrinth; the Riverwalk District tries, gamely, to pretend the Truckee is the main event. It mostly succeeds on summer evenings. You will meet bachelor parties from Sacramento, lifelong Nevadans nursing well drinks at the Peppermill satellites, and the occasional Tesla engineer slumming it. Rents undercut anything in California by a country mile, which is the whole pitch. Bring tolerance for cigarette smoke indoors and a soft spot for the word Biggest.
