About Reno
Reno is a city in the U.S. state of Nevada by the Sierra Nevadas and Lake Tahoe. Dubbed “The Biggest Little City in the World,” it's known for its casinos and its proximity to many ski resorts, vintage cars, dancing and hip restaurants may define the city now, but Reno is very much attached to its heritage and rural roots.
Downtown’s National Automobile Museum showcases more than 200 vintage cars. The MidTown District is lined with shops and restaurants. North of downtown, Animal Ark is a sanctuary for rescued bears, cheetahs and other wildlife.
Reno Twentieth-Century Divorce Capital (once known)
RENO WAS known as THE DIVORCE CAPITAL OF AMERICA. Locals, Journalists and gossip columnists called it the "Great Divide," a destination for divorce seekers who wanted to take "the cure," get "Reno-vated," and according to legend, throw their wedding rings into the Truckee River from the Virginia Street "Bridge of Sighs."
In May of 1931, there were so many divorce seekers flooding into Reno, some were forced to camp on the banks of the Truckee River for the lack of accommodations in town. Gambling had been also legalized in 1931, which lured even more people, and in 1933 the state won the amoral trifecta, as it were, when Prohibition was repealed. During the 1930s, more than 30,000 (estimated) people came to Reno to get a divorce, pumping an estimated $5 million per year at its height into an economy whose population hovered around 20,000 full-time residents throughout the decade.
