the west side of Vegas has to be broken down into separate and distinct areas to properly evaluate it. summerlin is the most expensive, mountains edge would be next and thirdly where I live which is the North-west part of Las Vegas the where building is the most rampant is called Centennial Hills. Centennial Hills is every bit as nice as Summerlin in my opinion without having to pay premium prices for the "reputation".... without the price tag. Okay so I live in a brand-new construction home or was when I rented it in 2018 brand-new construction matters. Don't kid yourself. Homes that have been in the rental program for years and years are old..old appliances old this old that.. is a real pleasure to move into a brand-new construction rental whether it be an apartment and or a house. So 4 bedrooms three full baths two car garage washer and dryer stainless steel appliances high-end cabinetry and from my perspective the most important component of all nausea central air-conditioning on both floors but also the master bedroom has his own dedicated central AC thermostat which in Las Vegas definitely matters if you want to keep your bedroom very cool ... but the point is that I have all of that for $1400… Rent just one up to $1500 for 1800 ft.²… So you can see the west side is not that expensive depending on where on the Westside you live. Smart money is moving to Centennial Hills. Summerlin is way too expensive and has that "it" factor about it that is causing California money to fly there. Consequently this home renting Centennial Hills would be seven or $800 more in Summerlin and would not be new. Keep that in mind but otherwise agree with your assessment of the Westside versus East side. This is a known fact an important one to keep in mind for anybody moving to Vegas. It's almost like two separate towns. East side is very difficult and run down and it just "feels" dangerous. The Westside feels just like living in Palm Springs or some small community in Utah.
