Rural AreasWith the movement of additional positions to Nevada’s urban areas because of the 2010 Census, it has become more challenging for SCSEP grantees to provide adequate amounts of staff and travel dollars to serve the more rural counties in Nevada. Four of Nevada’s most rural counties, Eureka, Esmeralda, Pershing and Storey, together comprising a 14,057 square mile area, are without any SCSEP participants.
