I would not live in Nevada because of the blast furnace it is in the summer. It gets very hot here in summer, too, but the heat in Las Vegas hits you like a wall and just sucks your breath away.
Las Vegas like most large cities has areas that should be avoided. Other consideration's Las Vegas is vying for Amazon to build their headquarters in Vegas because of the projected 50,000 jobs that would bring. Toss in the Raiders football team relocating to Vegas and the population boom might not be what you would want. More than likely property values and cost to own or rent will rise.Hello,
We were thinking of renting/moving in the Las Vegas area. There's no rent control like there is in California.
Has anyone experience their rent going up a lot?
Which apartment complex is good to live at?
We lucked out on our move to Vegas. It was in 2012, when housing prices were abnormally low. So we bought a condo, and it has worked out well overall.Hello,

Amazon jobs and the Raiders would attract a lot of young people, too, GMM.

Heat. No everyone is a fan of heat, maybe less understood is that high temps are not year round, just like ice & snow aren't. About 4 months out of the year heat & A/C aren't needed. 4 months heat & A/c vary. Then there is the 4 months of high heat that both southern Nv. & Arizona enjoy.
