Hawthorne (Nevada)

census-designated place in Nevada, United States

Hawthorne is a city of 3,300 people in Nevada at the south end of Walker Lake.

Hawthorne and its adjacent former town Babbitt provide housing for the nearby Hawthorne Army Depot (switching to Mapnik on the map settings below clearly demonstrates this). The depot stores munitions in widely-spaced bunkers in reserve for a major conflict.

Get in

By plane

The town has its own airport 🌍 Hawthorne Industrial Airport (HTH ), though this facility seems to be used to transport goods rather than passengers.

The nearest city with an airport is Reno and therefore the 🌍 Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO) would be recommended for commercial flights.

Hawthorne is a small, rural town. Don't expect the usual large hotel-casinos of other Nevadan towns.
