- Everyone knows everyone. This has its pros and cons, depending on how you look at it. Although it is nice to be a part of such a tightly knit community, it is a real bummer when everyone and their grandmas know your business.
- If you were born before 2005, you probably still call it “Red Lion” instead of “Winnemucca Inn”
- It’s impossible to go to the grocery store without running in to 4 different people you know. There is no such thing as a quick trip.
- People who aren’t from Northern Nevada have no idea where this place is, so you just say “It’s two hours north of Reno.”
- We probably have some of the prettiest sunsets in the whole world. All of Nevada, actually.
- Honestly, no one really ever camped up Water Canyon, but everyone has been there.
- If you really want to see a movie the day it is released, you won’t find that here. Damnit, Park Cinemas.
- The community is oddly supportive of the one and only Lowry High School. (Go Bucks!)
- There’s 3 radio stations, and two of them rarely work. The presets in your car are 92.7, 94.3, and 102.7. Don't argue with me.
- There are two types of people; China Garden or Wonderful House.
- You probably still call Khoury’s, Albertsons... and Ridley's, Raleys.
- When the new four-way stop was put in on Bridge and Haskell, everyone went completely psychotic.
- You’re not sure what disgusting mysteries lie within the mighty Humboldt River, but you still swim/float it anyways. Don't ever swallow the water.
- You know that wherever you go, you will always rather be here. It's uniqueness grows on you.
