Rainbows, Silver Midnights, Desert Stars and Beautiful Landscapes: Meet the Southern Nevada Community Network
The Southern Nevada Community Network is comprised of mountain ranges and flatland including Esmeralda and Nye counties that together cover 21,748 square miles.
Overview
Southern Nevada Community Network is a place that takes you to the beauty of nature, to the vastness of land, to the darkness of the sky, and to the brightness of the stars. Located in an area that covers 21,748 miles, the people there enjoy living in those quaint elements with a total population of approximately 55,467. Out of that approximation, Nye County has 54,738 residents and Esmeralda County has 729. Esmeralda County is comprised of the unincorporated towns of Goldfield, Fish Lake Valley, and Silver Peak, and Nye County includes the unincorporated towns of Amargosa Valley, Gabbs, Beatty, Pahrump, Round Mountain, and Tonopah.
All these towns are nestled among unspeakable beauty, but face barriers including the need for a hospital for medical services, affordable housing, utility infrastructure, child-care services, and workforce development. The Southern Nevada Community Network will partner with its stakeholders and identify and alleviate critical needs of the community by creating a strategic plan to improve the lives of its residents.
