Any information about Henderson would be helpful. I don't want to live in Las Vegas, but I want to bring my family out of the phoneix area.

Thanks,

Steve

Henderson is a suburb of Las Vegas that is home to several renown Master Planned Communities. Henderson has ranked high on many lists that track desireable/livable cities.

It's basically an extension of Las Vegas in many ways. I would advise keeping your options open because there are many desireable areas in and around Las Vegas that are worth considering. Distance wise, living in henderson is not any different than living in Summerlin, which is a master planned community in the Northwest, except for the Las Vegas address. This is all assuming you are looking for a good neighborhood to raise a family.

Some areas are much more family-friendly than others, however. Boulder Highway is tired in spots. Western Henderson gets fancy...some very desirable places.

There is essentially NO differance between Henderson [Hooterville] and Las Vegas....tha vast majority of Hootervillians work in Las Vegas...

Hey Steve,
We moved to Henderson from Glendale, AZ due to a new job. We absolutely loved Henderson, although we had originally considered Las Vegas. We were just off of Eastern & St. Rose Pkwy (you can google map), and we found the area to be really safe and clean. Nearby grocery stores, Target, Walmart, gas stations, Lowe's....just about everything was in easy walking distance. I wouldn't move towards Boulder Hwy, as it is a bit of an older area.

The heat there is a bit different from AZ, but it reminded us a lot of AZ.

Good luck to you!
