Hi there,
I am new to this forum, and have just started to read previous tips on relocating to Vegas. My husband has been offered a job at the Mountain Pass CA Plant and would be commuting to work as we make our home in LV. From the research I've done online we'd want to look in the Southern part of Vegas or possibly Henderson.
We have two kids ( Middle school and Elementary). So I'm wondering if I can get some recommendations for schools, house rental agencies or nice townhouses that any one knows of. We would want to rent a home for the first 6 months to a year, to give us time in finding the right house to buy. I've been looking at the zip codes of 89183, 89052 or 89074.
Also Christian or Baptist churches in that area that offer good programs for kids.

There's alot to consider and the move would happen pretty quickly. So any tips, advice or webpages you can pass my way would be really appreciated!!!

I suggest you confine your hunt to Southern Highlands. That is a miserably long commute and that minimizes it. That is basically zip 89141. That has homes for rent from $1,000 to about $5000 and pretty good schools.

There are some lower end homes in 89183, 89052 and 89044 that are equally as convenient for the commute but simply not as nice a neighborhood as S. Highlands.

^^ It's pretty out there, too. This is a very nice Church with tons of programs for kids Canyon Ridge Christian Church - Canyon Ridge Home
It's on the wrong side of town for you if you are going to be living in the southern part of the valley, but I think there is a similar congregation out that way.

Wow thats about an 80 miles commute one way. My mom lives by the M Resort and its a nice area with rents in the low 1000's for a 3 bedroom 2 bath. There are a few baptist churches very close towards the South Point Casino. Southern Highlands is also a good choice which is basically on the other side of the freeway.
