Original inhabitants of the Reno area were the Martis natives who were a hunter & gatherer community from 2000 BCE to 500 CE. It wasn't until the pioneers first came and settled during the 1850's that Reno started to form a new community. This community didn't begin booming until 1931 when Reno legalized gambling and the least strict laws on divorce in the country. Although Reno is still known for casinos, it is now also known for the the beautiful nature including Lake Tahoe.
