Carson City, Nevada Tenant Credit Report Service

Carson City is the capital of the U.S. state of Nevada. A 2005 population estimates places its population at 57,104. Carson City is now an independent city, not part of any county, and is its own Metropolitan Statistical Area. Like many towns in Nevada, Carson City was founded in the boom days of mining. A center of Silver mining, Carson City was the county seat of the former Ormsby County and was named for explorer Kit Carson.

Carson City was one of five state capitals not served by an interstate highway (Dover, Delaware; Jefferson City, Missouri; Juneau, Alaska, and Pierre, South Dakota are the other four). This changed on February 16, 2006 with the opening of Phase 1 of the Carson City Freeway project; a four lane stretch between Lakeview Hill and US 50. This will eventually be renamed Interstate 580 when the link between Reno and Carson City is complete. With the completion of Phase 2, the Carson City Freeway will loop around the city and end near US 50 to the south.

Carson City has the distinction of being the smallest of the 361 Metropolitan Statistical Areas as designated by the United States Census Bureau (as of July 1, 2004).

The largest nearby city to Carson City is Reno, about 30 miles to the north.
