Considering Relocating to Las Vegas?
OUR MISSION
If you are thinking of moving to Las Vegas, you will find it has so much to offer. Las Vegas is one of America's fastest-growing cities. It isn't just for tourists looking for 24/7 entertainment and gaming. Las Vegas is surprisingly one of the top-ranked places to live in the Western United States. It's a great place to live and a great place to retire.
Las Vegas offers its share of friendly suburban neighborhoods, hip downtown historic areas, and close-to-the-action living spaces, giving it diverse, international flair and uniqueness.
Las Vegas is much more than a city of gambling, partying, and lavish nightlife; it also has some of the top world-class restaurants. Whether you are a foodie, a gourmet chef or are just looking to eat great food, you are going to the right place, as Las Vegas has become a mecca for celebrity chefs. There's a restaurant bearing one's name in nearly every major hotel.
Las Vegas is a sprawling suburban region outside the Strip and Downtown areas. It's about a 30-minute drive from one end of the city to the other. If you like suburban life, Summerlin and Henderson are two master-planned communities to consider.
1. NO STATE INCOME TAX
One of the benefits of living in Las Vegas is that Nevada does not have a state income tax. The state earns the revenue it needs from tourism, casino resort fees, and its sales tax rate of 8.38%.
Nevada has also recruited many large companies and some of the most innovative entrepreneurs to the state. From Howard Hughes to Steve Wynn to a new and younger generation, the list is endless. Entrepreneurs with excellent business plans have extensive resources at their fingertips in Las Vegas.
2. LAS VEGAS IS AFFORDABLE
The receipts from the tourism, gambling, and entertainment industries provide the management, government, and administration of Las Vegas with staggering capital. This trickles down to the citizens and makes Las Vegas one of the world's most beautiful yet affordable cities. Living in Las Vegas is surprisingly affordable compared to other major cities. Utility, property taxes, and gasoline are all well below the national average.
Furthermore, if you drive an electric car, there are charging stations at every hotel, casino, and most public parking lots.
When considering job offers before moving to Las Vegas, consider the low cost of living. You will still have "play" money left in your pocket even after paying your bills. This improves a family's quality of life.
3. LAS VEGAS WEATHER
Las Vegas enjoys more than three hundred days of sunshine each year. The average temperature of Las Vegas is around 70-80 degrees. East Coasters and people from hot and humid climates appreciate the lack of snow and humidity.
Winter is short and mild. A Las Vegas winter is more like Spring because the temperature in December through February is usually 50-60 degrees. Hot weather typically runs from July to September; the temperature is usually around 102 degrees during the day, and the evenings are in the 80s.
4. ENTERTAINMENT OPPORTUNITIES
As the world's entertainment capital, Las Vegas has endless options for exciting and oftentimes, thrilling entertainment. You can start with a walk down the strip and see the bright lights and bustling casinos to the best shows and comedies from the most famous performers in the world.
The Beatles Love by Cirque Du Soleil. Michael Jackson ONE by Cirque Du Soleil. Opium at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Paranormal Mind Reading Magic Show at Bally's Las Vegas.

Boxing and UFC are also big hits on the Strip.
There are also 70 golf courses in Las Vegas and a couple of dozen major resorts with golf course affiliations.
7. OUTDOOR ADVENTURES
Las Vegas isn't just all shows and casinos. Scenic locations are abundant in the surrounding areas. In fact, several of the most breathtaking national parks in the country, like Bryce Canyon and Zion, are a short drive from Las Vegas.
The stunning Valley of Fire State Park and the adjacent Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area offer hiking or biking with incredible views just minutes out of town. You can also head over to the Lake Mead National Recreation area for watersports. It's also just a 30-minute drive to the Mt. Charleston ski resort to escape the valley's summer heat, and you can mountain bike, hike, horseback ride, ski, or jump on your snowboard.
Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam are within hours of Las Vegas.
Thanks to the mostly-pleasant weather, you can enjoy these outdoor activities for most of the year whenever you need a break from the city lights.
8. JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Due to the abundance of hotels, resorts, casinos, restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions, job seekers can find plenty of opportunities within the hospitality industry.

That said, we're revealing the number one reason people are moving to Las Vegas.
9. RETIREMENT
Retirement in Las Vegas is a great option for those seeking an active adult lifestyle because of the low cost of living and the ability to live and enjoy good weather, world-class entertainment, great deals on food, public transportation, and easy access to health services.
Las Vegas has an abundance of well-designed master-planned communities with great retirement communities. Sun City Summerlin, Del Webb at Lake Las Vegas, and Heritage at Cadence are just a small selection of the numerous 55+ communities that are in the area.
Alongside the great benefits of the surrounding area, these Las Vegas retirement communities come with their own set of amenities and perks. Many showcase community centers that are hubs for fitness and recreational sports and loads of groups and clubs to get involved with.
Real estate is still affordable. If you couple the low cost of living and lack of a state tax, a person on a fixed income could very well find happiness in Las Vegas after retirement.
10. MASTER-PLANNED COMMUNITIES
Various master-planned communities are scattered throughout the Las Vegas Valley. For those who cherish the rich suburban lifestyle, these areas are distinguished by the tremendous number of amenities and conveniences they offer to local residents.
Places like Summerlin, Green Valley, Southern Highlands, and Henderson are just a few of the beautifully designed communities that are great for raising a family with low crime and great schools.
In the 1950’s Las Vegas looked to become more of a family-oriented city. To accomplish this, they founded a suburb called Henderson. Today, Henderson has over three hundred thousand residents. In 1990, they followed that up with Summerlin. Summerlin is a prestigious suburb originally conceived by Howard Hughes heirs.
