Regarding car insurance, I knew this guy who lived in Las Vegas, drove to Pahrump and set up a PO Box, made the PO Box is garage and address for the auto insurance, and saved a ton of money. He basically had the PO Box forward all his mail to him in Las Vegas and no one was the wiser. It was like 50% cheaper over there!
1) Thank you for not delaying the video and getting to the info 2) not having an intro song is super appreciated 3) I am more inclined to work with you opposed to other realtors who have YT channels literally for the above ro reasons. No time wasted and I appreciate it!! Excellent video.

Thank you for a very informative video as I have lived in las Vegas for over 10 years now and as a I am a rideshare driver of over 7 years and I get a lot of people interested in moving here but there is a vast difference in partying on the strip for a weekend and actually living here full time in which people fail to realize that when you move here, you are no longer here to party but to work and pay bills as you would back home.

What to look for? Trashy, party animal neighbors. My first home in Las Vegas, neighbors behind me were addicted remodelers who had a project, noisy projects in their backyard for TEN years. Besides that, they would get drunk and argue to the point of multiple police calls. I found that above $2,000,000, the neighbors tend to be less annoying.
I really enjoyed how many different demographics you covered in your video in such an informative way. Vegas here I come!!!
A very fine professional presentation. Thank you answering many questions including some which addressed issues of which I was not aware. I see some useful comments to be studied as well.
Lauren thank you for an extremely informative video on life in Vegas I've been visiting Las Vegas since 2014 every year from Australia until covid stopped me in 2019 , I refer to Las Vegas as the magical city as there's so much to do and the weather throughout summer is superb, I'd definitely live there although my friends who live there tell me its being flooded by Californians and they say don't Californian my Nevada, your definitely fortunate to live in such an awesome city , your presentations are extremely professional should I ever get the courage to move I'd definitely be seeing you for real estate as your company seems trustworthy for sure , look forward to your next video stay safe .
I was in LV on vacation and I had to go to an emergency room. I saw a doctor, got a CTScan and then saw the doctor one last time before leaving and the whole process to about 90 minutes. Thank You Las Vegas!

The only issue I have is the drinking water problem/Lake Mead. Washington State where I am should sell water to you guys, other than that I would move to Vegas in a heartbeat!
Live in northern Nevada, not as hot, more warehousing than ever before, beautiful Lake Tahoe, have water so far and the gorgeous Sierras. Getting tired of all the traffic though, may buy property on the outskirts cause the prices in town are ridiculous!!!
I go Las Vegas it’s so much fun
NV ranks 49th in education. I tutored all math and physics courses at CCSN for min wage.
bout halfway through the video and while it seems great theres one thing I havent seen spoken of yet but ill find out by the time i get to the end of the video. Jobs are a concern for my move out to vegas. Trying to get a career in tech and I havent been able to find any entry level positions anywhere. I don't want to work positions at retail or gas stations in vegas either due to the impression I have about the crime rate as well.
Very well done. If I could add: #22 Your car won't rust, the roads aren't salted like the northern states. #23 Gas is cheaper than in CA. #24 The roads are better than CA. #25 Vegas has really great churches, lots of them. #26 Home prices will come down in 2023 for those waiting on the sidelines to buy, but rates won't be 3%.

Key: Gamble in moderation, have a loyalty card, the points never expire as long as you use the card at least every 6 months. It's like drinking, if you have to do it or would rather do it then spend time with loved ones it's time to stop doing it.
First I will say that this was very informative. My wife and I are expected to move to Vegas from New Hampshire at the beginning or by the end of Spring. We have been looking for reasons to tell us not to do it but cannot find or come up with a single one, not to mention the unending signs that are pulling us directly into the crosshairs of Vegas. But I will also have to say, though you covered schooling including higher adult education, you didn't really mention anything about job opportunities. I know that Vegas obviously has an endless amount of jobs and careers to choose from, but I mean more along the lines of income and wages. Like what would be an ideal hourly rate for someone to live comfortably knowing that their finances are enough to cover their expenses AND be able to enjoy the many thrills that Vegas has to offer at the same time? If you could be so kind as to give some information on this I would be very grateful to hear what you have to say 🥰🥰🥰

I was able to nail a job in the health department and living comfortably in one of the nicer neighborhoods. Plus on my free time, I still get thrilled by walking the Strip. I love it here.

We get all seasons here, spring is nice and the weather too, rainy and cold in winter, summers are very nice and not too hot, fall is breath taking! Vegas gets old super quick.

I'm fairly new here, but it's a valid concern. Many areas are tearing out green landscaping along roads and not allowing it in HOAs due to water issues and costs. Also, just my opinion... it's not garden, horse, or farm animal friendly. It's HOT (120° in summer) and very little grows.

Just came back from a Vegas trip and your right pot is all over the strip. It was crazy to see people just sitting around outside the hotels smoking pot and we stayed at some on my favorite places . Trump International, Mandalay Bay and the Venetian. There are things I really like about Las Vegas but this isn’t one of them.
And rent prices are rising as well.
In all the videos I've watched on moving to or living in Nevada, no one ever mentions there is no state or local capital gains tax. Why is that? I think it is a big plus.
I'm a US citizen living in Panama in central America, my dad retired from the US Army and he passed away over here now I'm planing to move to the states with my wife and baby son of two years nine months, I'm very excited moving into Vegas! I've built a 14 years of Resorts Hotel carrier, I'm just waiting word from Caesar palace or Wynn hotel to email me or call me, I hope they call soon since I want to be over there already!
I'm thinking about moving to Vegas but I don't know where to start.

I will never call Las Vegas airport for the new name. It will be forever MacCarran. That was a stupid change.

I think everyone goes to Las Vegas just to do some people watching
It's Wednesday June 29th 2022. A North Las Vegas police officer just dropped me off at my house. I was at Albertsons grocery store on Craig and Simmons. I paid for $180 for the groceries. Excuse me I'm still going through shock. I'm reflecting on the groceries that I picked out it's horrible. Okay back to the story. So I picked out $180 for the groceries. I payed for them. Then I remember I forgot a couple items. I pushed my cart back in the store and left it in the lobby and grab some cheese and went through the check stand and I paid for them. I went to grab my car and somebody stole it. Someone stole all my groceries. I called the police right away. I'm realizing I had four packages family packs of ribeyes and two 2 lb bags of shrimp, for 12 packs of soda. And many other groceries. I walked 2 miles to get there. I spent all my money now I have no food for the rest of the month. How could someone steal my groceries. Don't move to North Las Vegas. This is the third time I've been a victim of a crime at that Albertsons. I feel the employees were involved. I think the graveyard shift people were involved. Someone dropped them off and the person that dropped them off scooped up my groceries. I'm starting to hate society. I have no water and no electricity and now this happens. And this is supposed to be the safe part of North Las Vegas. Humanities f****** going to the s***.

DON'T MOVE HERE. The healthcare is horrible. Driving around here is ludicrous because it is impossible to turn left into or out of anything. In addition, there is a particular blindness about how to use signs. Housing costs are ludicrous. There is ZERO shade. There is one good thing about Vegas - it is VERY pet friendly. The veterinary care is much better than the health care for humans.
Las Vegas is awful. There is literally little to do if you don't gamble. Yes... you can hike in the desert as long as it is the few winter months. Most of the year, the heat is like sticking your head in an oven. The city is filled with strip malls. There is literally no arts. No symphony, no ballet, no opera and no art museum. If y ou like sports, then yes... the city is going in the right direction. Traffic is getting worse by the hour. There is no mass transit. You would think that with all that land in the desert the homes would be spacious and have nice size lots. The truth is the newer homes have tiny back yards that in many cases won't even hold a pool and you are literally 6 feet apart from your neighbor's home. The reason people moved out to Las Vegas was due to reasonable home prices and rents. Now rent and home prices are almost on par with California without all the beauty California has to offer. No ocean... just blistering heat and dirt. I am sorry, but I was so happy to leave and never look back.
