Absolutely disgusting. My parents built their house on Tahoe in 1947. Right on the lake, bordering the Sugar Pine State Park. Every year we saw it change from what was a sleepy Mountain resort, and a bunch of hippies, kind of bouncing around to becoming more and more of a playground for the ultra rich. That’s all it is now is a playground for the ultra rich. All of the locals have been pushed out in favor of expensive cars, tearing down, classic Tahoe properties to build super luxury homes and fancy restaurants and shopping. It’s truly saddening.

It is true that lake Tahoe is a playground for the rich, and always has been since the inception of the railway coming through our area. In the late 1800's and early 1900's Tahoe was virtually clear cut by big business to build the railways, feed he papermills and create the infrastructure of the world that we live in today. Most of those natural resources went to San Francisco, Reno and Sacramento. The truth of our area is that Tahoe is the 3rd most visited natural wonder of the world. People from all over the world come to visit every year. Tripling our population with tourism when they come to enjoy every day. It is one of the most accessible natural resources in all of America. Our local businesses feed off of the revenue generated by tourism, our infrastructure is strained as a result every year. But the truth in what keeps property values where they are, is the cost of materials, the modern day building codes increasing the engineering costs, the cost of labor and the environmental policies preserving our lake quality for all of those people to preserve. Thanks for your comments. I appreciate your perspective.

@@gemmegroup I’m guessing you weren’t there in the 70s. I was. Screw the rich. West shore locals only. And if you really think it was always playground for the ultra rich, you sure weren’t there. I was there.

We have snow and taxes here... Cant deny that. But we also have a pristine environment and some of the greatest skiing in the US.
