Frequently asked questions

What is the elevation of Reno in feet and metres?

Reno is at 1,376 m, or 4,513 ft, above sea level, read at a point within 500 m of its centre whose height is the median of the area. Within 5 km of the centre the ground runs from 1,341 m to 1,697 m.

Is Reno at high altitude?

No. At 1,376 m (4,513 ft), Reno is below 1,500 m (4,900 ft), where altitude has little effect on most people.

What is the highest point near Reno?

Within 5 km of the centre, the highest ground is 1,697 m (5,569 ft) at 39.56014, -119.85631. The lowest is 1,341 m (4,398 ft) at 39.49951, -119.77071.

How is the elevation of Reno measured?

From the Copernicus DEM, a 30 m elevation model made from satellite radar between 2011 and 2015. It includes roofs and trees, so the figure is read at the point whose height is the median of 121 points within 500 m of the centre, rather than at one point that may fall on a building.
