2021 $0 down, VA home loan limit for Carson City is $548,250.
The independent city (not belonging to any county) Carson City has been the only capital of Nevada since its inception in 1861. Named after famed mountain man/explorer Kit Carson, the population of Carson City exploded following the discovery of gold and silver on the close by Comstock Lode. Following the mining boom, many counties in Nevada stagnated. Carson City experienced a period of growth and revitalization in the 1940s, absorbing Ormsby County, becoming one of the larger state capitals in the country, at the time.
Today, while Nevada enjoys a reputation of gold mining and its place being among the lore of the Wild, Wild West pioneer movement, most of the state is famous for its entertainment and gambling venues. Carson City is no exception, with several Casinos being the largest employers in the city.
Local residents looking to get away from the city for a weekend enjoy the close proximity of Carson City to Lake Tahoe, an extremely popular travel destination.
