The importance of tourism to the economy of Nevada County is extremely significant, and growing. The retail industry is vital to Nevada County for both residents and tourists, and serves as a major source of employment while adding significantly to the tax base of the County.
Preservation of the historic downtowns with their classic boutique shops is a priority in Nevada County. For residents, most support the concept of the need to shop locally, which directly helps build the great communities we enjoy.
There is a wide diversity of tourist opportunities that are available throughout the year. From the physical challenges of adventure through such things as hiking, mountaineering, skiing, and golf; to the mental fulfillment of cultural heritage tourism through the arts, music, and exploration of historical landmarks; to sheer leisure activities of wine tasting, fishing on one of the many incredible lakes, or enjoying an evening of fine dining; to taking in major events such as the Nevada County Fair, the Truckee Championship Rodeo, or Victorian Christmas in Nevada City; there is something for everyone in Nevada County.
