Hotter than crap May--Sept. Plan on staying inside during the long hot summer days. Really sucks unless you are at one of the EXTREMELY crowded recreation centers or water parks.
FALL, Winter, Spring are great, but kids are in school and all that summer vaction is over...wasted on avoiding the hot temp.
Economy is good, but the cost of living here goes up up up every year. Power bill in summer can be 350+ per month, car insurance is a complete joke, and registration for your car is a nightmare.
Lake Mead is starting to look like a pond.
Public Education here is some of the worst in the country. Low graduation rate. High schools have higher than a verage lack of parental involvment than other places I've lived...SOUTHERN UTAH.
Extremely high transient rate..people move here and leave all the time..hmmm I wonder why??? This adds up to a horable scense of cummunity and neighborhood involvment.
The city paints a very misleading picture with all of its super cummunity accomplishments like parks and firehouses..bla bla bla.
Unless you were born here and have a stable base of family and friends...Don't even consider this place. You will want out after the first year.
