Many who choose to call Mono County home are embracing a lifestyle and set of values centered around some of life's greatest treasures: fresh air, clean water, sunshine, safe communities, and access to unparalleled outdoor recreation and natural beauty. For those who find joy in the great outdoors—whether through photography, hiking, fishing, rock climbing, kayaking, bird watching, cycling, skiing, or snowboarding—Mono County offers an environment where they can truly feel alive. Why not move closer to what you love doing? 

Mono County, one of the most beautiful places on earth, has long been a destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Known for its world-class skiing and snowboarding at Mammoth Mountain and June Mountain ski areas, many avid skiers and riders who move to Mono County often say, "I came for the winter but stayed for the summer."

Mono County is also home to unique natural wonders, including the otherworldly Mono Lake, one of the oldest lakes in North America, renowned for its tufa towers and diverse bird population. Additionally, the county boasts the stunning Bodie State Historic Park, a preserved ghost town offering a glimpse into California's Gold Rush era. 

Staying connected to the world beyond the mountains—whether to clients, vendors, suppliers, colleagues, family, or friends—is essential. With commercial air service available at Mammoth Yosemite Airport (MMH) and Eastern Sierra Regional Airport in Bishop (BIH), high-speed internet, and the well-maintained US Highway 395, Mono County provides vital access. This means you can work remotely or run your business successfully, all while enjoying a breathtaking corner office view of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. Whether you wish to relocate yourself, your family, or your business, we are here to help you make the choice of a lifetime.
