We plow, shovel, haul and salt; ask whether your address is on the route. Indian Hills is a Douglas County community of about 5,500 people just south of Carson City. Because the station and the town are 17 feet apart in elevation, the Carson City record is an unusually good fit here. ## At a glance - About 4,778 feet, 17 feet from the Carson City station - About 14.0 inches of snow a year at that station - December averages 6.4 inches, nearly half the year's total - About 15 minutes from our yard without traffic ## How the 14 inches arrive The Carson City station, 2.8 miles from Indian Hills, has a 1991-2020 snowfall normal of about 14.0 inches. By month it is lopsided: December averages about 6.4 inches, January 3.6, February 1.7, March 1.6 and November 0.7, and the rest of the year is close to zero (NOAA). December alone is close to half the season. The station also records about 9.3 inches of total precipitation a year. Planning for Indian Hills means being set up before December, not in the middle of it. ## A Douglas County community Indian Hills has about 2,500 households, a median build year of 1995, and about 36% of homes built in 2000 or later. About 81% are owner-occupied and 87% are detached houses (ACS 2020-2024). Those are mostly residential driveways, plus a few that need hauling when snow has nowhere to go. ## Whose sidewalk rule applies Carson City's sidewalk snow rule, CCMC 11.12, applies inside the city. Indian Hills is in Douglas County, and we did not find a county sidewalk snow rule in our research. Check with the county about your own address rather than assuming either way. See [whose job is the sidewalk](https://battleborntreeservice.com/guides/sidewalk-snow-rules-carson-city-reno/) for the Carson City and Reno rules. ## The shortest drive we have The yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East is 10.2 miles from Indian Hills, about 15 minutes without traffic, a free-flow estimate with no allowance for snow. That is not an arrival promise, but a nearby yard is the simplest advantage in a storm. Call [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) or request a free estimate and ask whether your address is on the route. ## What to tell the office Give the address, the length and slope of the drive, whether snow can be piled on site and where, and who the contact is. If you want ongoing service, ask about a custom flat rate for the season. Our snow team is available around the clock in season, and snow crews can also clear ice from walks once the surface is open. ### Sources - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020, Carson City (USC00261485), monthly and annual snowfall and precipitation](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/us-climate-normals) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates, Indian Hills CDP](https://data.census.gov/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads, free-flow drive time from 6301 US Highway 50 East, Carson City](https://project-osrm.org/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - **Drive from our yard:** about 15 min 10.2 miles - **Elevation:** 4,778 ft USGS - **USDA hardiness zone:** 7b 2023 map - **Homes built before 1980:** 24% median year built 1995 Sources: drive time from our yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, free-flow, OSRM / Census Geocoder; elevation, USGS 3DEP; hardiness zone, USDA 2023 map; housing figures, U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimates; wildfire risk, USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (April 2026 data).
