Hi everyone! I’m planning to move to Reno for a job in the near future, and I’ve made a couple big moves before but always on the east side of the country. I have never been to your area and visiting before moving isn’t logistically easy (currently in Florida lol) so I would LOVE any Reno-specific information on the housing search and what to expect from the city, particularly unconventional knowledge I couldn’t find online. What’s the general vibe in the ciry? What are the different neighborhoods like, are any particularly dangerous? How are transplants treated? For context, I’m a woman in my late 20s working with wildlife.

Also, would appreciate any affordable housing recommendations (the offer I got is probably 2/3 of the lowest comfortable wage, but I’m expecting to work part time on weekends.. it’s typical for my field). I’m looking at anything pet friendly around Reno and Sparks that’ll go for $1400 or under, a lot of these buildings seem to have pest problems, but would love to hear from someone who had a positive experience living in a budget friendly apartment <3

Thank you!! Looking forward to exploring the beautiful place Reno seems to be :)

ETA: guys it’s not a USA Parkway job, i didn’t even know what that was before making this post 😭 I’m a research/field biologist, we move to random places a lot.

Rereading old conversations with my ex as I’m recovering from my worst and messiest breakup ever and still trying to reach him for some sort of clarity or a clean cutoff. This just reminds me every comeback looks the same, maybe it’ll remind someone else of that too. They genuinely cannot comprehend others’ feelings.

For context, his text was sent on Christmas after 6 days of ghosting, after the last time I saw him - I then moved across the states and we went long-distance. We had a blowup fight that day in which he became physical, then cried a lot about me leaving, then once again became distant and argumentative and disappeared.

Pretty funny to think how his “ex” gf was probably already staying with him in that period and his focus was on grilling me for no reason

Even funnier that despite his worst fear i still can’t even move on and won’t be able to for a while 🙃
