Spring Valley
Few places in Nevada have a history as closely tied to the suburban expansion of metropolitan Las Vegas as Spring Valley. This unincorporated community occupies the western side of the Las Vegas Valley, a broad desert basin bordered by the Spring Mountains to the west. Most of its growth followed its establishment in 1981, when residential development began to spread beyond the older core of Las Vegas. Spring Valley is now part of the continuous urban fabric of Clark County, with the resort corridor of the Las Vegas Strip lying east of the community. Its identity is firmly metropolitan rather than remote: everyday neighbourhoods sit within reach of one of the United States’ best-known entertainment districts.

Nevada occupies an inland basin-and-range expanse in the western United States. Much of the state lies within the Great Basin, where long, dry valleys alternate with north–south mountain ranges and the Humboldt River crosses the northern interior. The Sierra Nevada forms part of its western edge, while the Colorado River marks much of the southeastern border. Nevada’s modern identity was shaped by mining: the 1859 Comstock Lode silver discovery near Virginia City helped fuel rapid development in the American West. Today, vast public lands, desert highways, ranching country and major cities such as Las Vegas give the state strikingly varied character.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
