About Silver City

Tucked into Gold Canyon just south of Virginia City, Silver City is a quiet, close-knit community in Lyon County with deep 19th-century mining roots. Today, this historic enclave offers a peaceful, semi-rural lifestyle framed by open desert vistas and starry night skies. Residents enjoy a relaxed, small-town atmosphere surrounded by rugged hills, along with an easy drive to Carson City and Reno for everyday amenities, dining, and work. It is an appealing spot if you are looking for vintage charm, plenty of elbow room, and a slower pace of life within reach of city conveniences.
