I’m visiting Vegas now and wonder why would you ever live here? I love Vegas and to gamble as much as anyone but, I don’t give 2 s$$t’s to live here. We chat with everyone here open minded and if you’re not involved with the casino business why would you be here? I come from an oil/gas industry and commercial real estate industry and consider myself an ignorant person on Vegas and the lure of living here. It’s not losing money that bothers me, I always win enough to buy something, weather it’s a dinner or even the entire cost of the trip. I’m just curious why live here???

This is awesome but, really is this a place that you want to live and bring your kids into???? -
Living in Las Vegas
You’re a desert rat is the only thing I can think of. I’m in Cali now and lived in Phoenix but would never come back.
It can be pretty but I’d take Tennessee any day over the retirement communities out west.

I've got a buddy who lives there. Hes does commercial real estate appraisal. He says he ll never run out of work. Says the casinos own a part of everything. He races motocross rides mountain bikes. Your within a few hours of Utah for awesome snow and a few hours of southern California for surf. You gota look past the bs of the strip. There always an. Event going on, always a concert, I dont think it would be half bad.Comment

My father in law lives in henderso, rarely goes to the strip. A lot of his customers are bosed our of Vegas (and phoenix). He loves it. He's originally from Buffalo and prefers the heat and sun.

I have several friends that live there and love it.
Most days it is just another town. But when you want to go for dinner and entertainment, it is awesome.
Just like any other city out there, if you want trouble you will find it.Comment

Not saying I would live there, but there’s much more to Vegas than the Strip.Comment

My son has lived there seven years because of the Air Force. When he retires, he wants to live around San Antonio. He was there for training several years ago and thinks its the best place to be. He hates Vegas.Comment

I lived there in 2009 - 2011. Only reason was job related, I was a PM on the City Center project.
At the time our son was 10 yo. We never drove down or around strips with him in the car. One day we did some walking and the DB dudes were handing out cards with naked hoes on them with phone numbers. I'm talking hundreds of these cards laying on sidewalks. Unbelievable..
I love to gamble, but made the point to never walk into a casino while we lived there. Wasn't about to get hooked on daily gaming.
But, Red Rock was a blast. We would 4x4 and hike for miles. We would striper fish, but never hunted.
Not many people know a 45 min drive to top of mount Charleston is usually 40 degrees cooler and some great views.
But I agree with it's no place to live or raise a kid IMO. Visit sure..Comment
