Probably because we live in a Desert... 
Oh and you better whip out the check book and get ready to pay BIG money for Northern Nevada Lakeside property. Topaz and Tahoe are the two that come to mind. |

Washoe Lake is more like a shallow sea than a lake. Expensive there too. |

Washoe is natural. Very natural. 
It is more akin to a wetland type environment than a lake like Tahoe or Topaz or Donner. It dries up from time to time, overfills from time to time. Very shallow. Beautiful as all heck though. |

It breaks 100 a couple of times in the summer. Usually stays in the 80's and 90's. Gets pretty cold in winter, snows a bit. Not like Vegas at all. We have 4 seasons, and they come 5/6 times a day.
The entire state is at altitude north of Vegas. Reno is at 4500'. I live at 5300'.
