Yerington's access to water and relatively flat landscape brought farmers to the area in the late 1800s. In the early 1900s, a copper mine opened west of the river, and the city rapidly expanded to support the miners. Mining operations stopped in the '70s, but traces of Yerington’s history remain throughout the city, along with a blend of newer amenities. “It has some great Mexican restaurants, fun boutiques and a couple of casinos,” says Christine Newell, a Realtor with Re/Max Gold who has lived in the region for more than 35 years. “It appeals to people looking to raise a family or retire away from the hustle and bustle of big city life.” Sidewalks and tree-shaded yards line many of downtown Yerington’s gridded streets.
