That's another one like Allure that at first appears to be right on the strip. Once you really check out the location though you will find that you might as well live slightly off the strip. Unless you are hanging out at Circus Circus or the Riveria you are not walking anywhere. The monorail is a pretty far walk as well, so you are left heading down the Strip if you want to go where all the action is. Living a bit further out adds very little time to the drive which you have to make anyway and can save you a ton over some of the high rises. If you truly want to live where the action is and not have to drive, City Center is the way to go. You literally take the elevator down to the center of the strip. I can understand why those units are so expensive. What doesn't make sense is that places like Sky, Turnberry, and Allure are similarly priced even though they really don't offer the same experience.

Ideal setup: A place in the heart of the strip, giving me proximity to several casinos (I'm not a gambler but i will go clubbing often) Not too expensive because I don't want to spend all of what I make.

What do you guys suggest?
I would suggest telling me how I can make that much money working from home

I'd really like to know too, as long as it is legal.

What do you do making 6k at home? I was making about the same amount of money when I lived there and could tell you about my living experience. I'm 28 now, but I was about 25 living in the town.

I am currently looking to rent and later purchase a high rise condo in Vegas.


Thanks
James
The best high-rise in town is Panorama Towers

You know, I like everything about Panorama except I wasn't too impressed with the pools....Anyone who owns/lives there care to differ? Compared to some of the other Pools at the High Rise's? Also - What is it like to walk across to the east side of the strip..>Does the harmon corridor connect you or someplace else.

What about bus lines??


Thanks!

James

Panorama has a free limo service for residents..they can take/pick you up within 3 miles. Their pool is open 24 hrs while in other high rises they are not. You can walk on the Harmon pass and get to city center in few minutes.

You make it sounds like it is a lot but compared to other big cities is really cheap especially for all the amenities you get. BTW is $.52.
