Wow! That's a heckava choice. Is that Cedarville CA? As a rule, California is not on my favorites list. I lived there over 30 years ago and was pleased to relocate to Colorado. But I know nothing about northwestern Nevada.

Re: Where to live in the USA?
With respect to politics and taxes, Nevada would be my choice. With respect to scenery, Cedarville would take it. Northern California is one of my favorite places, if it just wasn't part of that particular state. Now I just visit.
I'm a 5th generation Californian (Northern) and still have most of my family there. However, I moved out as well 25 years ago and haven't regretted it.

Nevada, they have reasonable gun laws, legal gambling, shows and entertainment, no lead bans best of all no bloody fish tacos.
California is good for a visit but if I had to live in that leftist unofficial Mexican state I'd go postal.

Re: Where to live in the USA?
Haven't been to either place but without a doubt you do NOT want to live in California. The leftie loonies are in firm control and getting worse every year. Good luck.

Re: Where to live in the USA?
Reckon Victoria trumps it....Where else can you hunt as much as you can in this world? No tags needed, no quotas and ship loads of game. But if work needs to take you overseas.....Victoria will allways be here for you....and take you back....

Re: Where to live in the USA?
That would be a tough choice. Both are similar, small and remote with the closest decent town, looking to be Reno NV. I would think you would need to visit each to see which one you would like best. I use to hang out in a little logging town named Tennant west of Cedarville in the 70's. Cedarville if I remember right is mostly agriculture on the edge of the desert and forest. I would think Gerlach is mostly desert. I don't know about Nevada but the area in California you're looking at has good duck and goose hunting if I remember right.
As bad as California is with its gun laws it's still better than what you have in Australia. But then Nevada is still way better than California. But if by chance you want to be able to Conceal Carry a sidearm in California you must be a California resident. Also since it is a May Issue State you have to show cause and get the local county sheriff's blessing. Nevada is a shall issue state which means you don't need to show cause and has open carry even to non citizens which California does not.

Re: Where to live in the USA?
Nevada has no state income tax. California’s is as much as 13%. Most all costs of living will be lower in Nevada. However, I reckon there must be a reason 40 million people live in a California and only 3 million live in Nevada. Never stepped foot in either myself.

Because California still has the West coast hippie beach life, hello Hollywood were so special and tolerant everyone wants to live here image.

Re: Where to live in the USA?
Well this is true. Even yesterday I was out stalking on a new block and plenty of sign around a dam
However I've been to Nevada a few times and one of my old work collegues lived in Winnemucca for years. I've visited him for a year and I was surprised how many deer and antelope I saw driving out from Reno. Although strickly 6.5 Creedmoor country
