Spreading out over 9,600 square miles, Humboldt County is the largest agricultural area within the state of Nevada. With a terrain rich in soil, farming is one of the four primary industries of the county. The high rugged desert areas along with the beautiful peaks of the Humboldt Mountains differentiate this expanse from much of the state, at least in terms of landscape diversity.
Along with agriculture, the economy is largely based in tourism, construction and mining. As the oldest county in Nevada, Humboldt was established in 1856 by the Utah Territorial Legislature, re-defining the borders of Utah. The area was discovered when frontier pioneers and settlers travelled west in search of gold. Named after German geographer Alexander von Humboldt, the county continues to enjoy the rich tradition of inquisitive ideals and out of the box thinking popularized by its namesake.
The more than 16,000 residents, as well as the countless visitors who arrive every year for the gaming entertainment, are a tribute to the ingenuity of Humboldt County. When many neighboring municipalities were abandoned as the mining boom dried up, Humboldt County persevered, managing to keep more residents than any other county designated for mining.
The custom of attracting tourists and residents remains etched into the culture of the county. Gaming draws in the crowd, while the beautiful landscape keeps them here. Ample fishing, hunting and camping opportunities are available for those that love nature. The western history and Native American culture are on full display within Humboldt County, as frequent festivals, exhibits and celebrations honor the philosophy of Alexander von Humboldt as well as the beautiful region. Visitors and residents are able to relive the experiences of the original pioneers who forged their way through Emigrant Pass in search of a new life.
