The Grove
Suburban Neighborhood in Reno, Nevada
Washoe County 89502, 89509
Diverse housing options in the Grove
The Grove has an incredibly diverse housing market; its northern periphery consists of quiet sidewalk-lined streets of ranch-style homes built in the late 1950s. Closer to the heart of the community, condos built in the 1970s add variety to the Grove’s housing stock, while sitting within a few blocks of the local elementary and middle schools. Several manufactured home communities are situated in the southern parts of the Grove. The majority of the Grove’s housing consists of ranch-style homes, some with brick accents or solar panels. Homes tend to vary in price from $200,000 to $650,000, with a median price of $244,000, half that of the city average. This humble community is beautified by several modern art sculptures which speak to the rapid evolution of the Grove, with the installation of pieces from Burning Man coinciding with a major redevelopment project that promises a trendy future for this community.

Expanding opportunities for recreation
The Grove’s ongoing redevelopment is not limited to residential or retail development. The area’s renewal efforts began in 2012 with the demolition of Moana Stadium, home to several of Reno’s minor league baseball teams since 1946. The site is now home to the Moana Springs Recreational Complex and will soon be home to Moana Springs Community Aquatics and Fitness Center, a state-of-the-art swimming facility. The nearby, 8-acre Tighe Park has baseball and softball fields, and hosts Reno’s Continental Little League.

Otis Vaughn Middle School and the B-rated Earl Wooster High School. Earl Wooster High offers an International Baccalaureate program and is also known for its strong STEM programs.

Riding into downtown Reno
The Grove is located just 3 miles from downtown Reno, which can be accessed within a 10-minute drive up Virginia Street or a 25-minute bus ride on the Lawlor Station bus route along that same road. The airport is located immediately next to the Grove and within a 2-mile journey from the heart of the community. The nearest hospital, the Renown Regional Medical Center, is located within a 2.5-mile and 7-minute drive to the north.Retail, restaurants and the Reno Entertainment District
The Grove not only provides residents with variety in housing options, but also in recreation opportunities. This neighborhood is home to two casinos. The Peppermill Resort Spa Casino features table games, slots and a racing and sports book as well as 10 restaurants and cafes including an extensive whiskey collection at the Terrace Lounge. The Grove is also home to several independent restaurants like Lili’s Restaurant in The Grove, known for its Hawaiian-themed breakfast, and the Coffee N’ Comics bookstore and café. Green-thumbed locals can beautify their gardens with plants from Moana Nursery, while the local Costco Wholesale can satisfy residents’ bulk shopping needs. Plenty more shopping opportunities are expected to emerge as a result of the Reno Experience District’s construction, with 65,000 square feet of property being earmarked for high-end retail.

Public safety programs

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
