Fernley is a great small town where everyone is friendly and helps one another! It is only about 45 minutes to Reno/Sparks and has plenty of new homes being built. The average home price is lower than the Reno/Sparks area. They also have a speedway that holds various events, gaming, fishing, areas to view historical sites and so much more! I have helped families buy and sell in Fernley and I would love the opportunity to help you!

I absolutely love this place coming from a big town to a tiny town is simply the way to go! It is a nice, quiet little town with great schools and parks. Everyone is so nice here and they say good morning and they love to strike up conversations with anyone I feel like there is never a dull moment here. You can feel the joy and love in the air!
