Called the “Hub of the West,” and ranked one of the “50 Fabulous Places to Raise Your Family,” the Reno/Sparks/Tahoe area has established itself as a prime location for both business and recreation/entertainment activities. Business activities in the area reach far beyond the well-established gaming industry. Both manufacturers and distributors have embraced the Reno/Sparks area, citing its favorable tax structure, high quality of life, and centralized location for serving the western markets as key factors in their decision to locate a facility in the area.In fact, more than one hundred nationally known companies such as General Motors, Ralston-Purina, Federal Express, United Parcel Service, and Boise Cascade have all established corporate facilities in the City of Sparks.

From a recreation/entertainment perspective, the Reno/Sparks/Tahoe area holds an abundance of world-class facilities and venues. Recreation opportunities encompass a full range of summer sports (hunting, fishing, hiking, white-water rafting, water skiing & camping) & winter sports (skiing, snowboarding, and ice skating) and capitalize on the area’s breathtaking natural beauty. Entertainment options range from the traditional (e.g. movie theaters) to the truly unique such as the casinos of South Lake Tahoe, historic Virginia City, the National Bowling Stadium, and the Ponderosa Ranch. These recreation/entertainment opportunities help attract millions of visitors annually.

In addition to its success in attracting new businesses, the City of Sparks has also emerged as a major residential growth area. In particular, the Spanish Springs area in northeast Sparks has become a center point of growth with more than 9,600 approved new residential units and more than two dozen active new residential developments. To meet the demands of this growth, the city and developers have implemented an aggressive infrastructure improvement program.
