How much land is available in Nevada?

What types of flora and fauna are in Nevada?

The southern part of Nevada is located in the Mojave Desert. The valley lands are fairly barren and the ground is made of caliche, which is a hard layer of mineral deposits mixed with sand, gravel and nitrates. Animal life in this region includes big horn sheep, lizards and scorpions. Areas north of the desert include regions like Lake Tahoe with large alpine and forested areas that are good for hunting and fishing.

What if I want to build?

New homes need to be built by a licensed contractor. Much of the land for sale in Nevada is located in open areas that are currently being developed. It's important to find out if the area where you plan to build has the infrastructure in place to provide utility services for electricity, sewage and roads.
