I may have a little Elko NV. info. for you.
I had a girlfriend that moved to that area for 2 years ago. I was going to move myself but we couldn't work out our differences. I just about wore out a vehical driving back and forth. It was 350 miles one way I live in Minden Nv..
I think Elko is the next boom town because of 5 reasons. 1). Super walmart just opened up. 2).Home Depot just built a new store. 3).The price of gold is going up. "Elko has 2 of the largest open pit gold mines in the world" 4).A train unloading station is being constructed next to interstate 80.5).The price of homes are cheap.
The biggest draw back is the weather. It's one cold nasty place in the winter. I think summer is only about 3 months long and it's hot too. If you like to hunt it's a great place to be. Only one little lake in Spring Creek and I don't think the fishing is good there. But the Ruby Marshes are great for fishing.
Elko is a cowboy town and the people want to keep it that way. Ranches,Cows, Horses, and Ford pick ups. I may end up there myself some day. Because I like it the Nevada way best. Good Luck to ya!
I lived in Alaska for several years and now live about 40 miles from canada in montana so I doubt the winters will bother me much.
