NEVADA COUNTY
Nevada County is located in the Sierra Nevada Mountain of California, in Mother Lode Country. As of 2010 its population was 98,764. The county seat is Nevada City. According to the 2000 census, the county has a total area of 974.49 square miles, of which 957.61 square miles (or 98.27%) is land and 16.88 square miles (or 1.73%) is water. The western part of the county is defined by the course of several rivers and the irregular boundaries of adjoining counties. When the county was created, the founders wanted to include access to the transcontinental railroad, so a rectangular section was added that includes the railroad town of Truckee. The final shape of the county is remarkably similar to the Deringer pocket pistol, a favorite at the time for the more urbane residents of this gold rush county.
