Vero Beach vs. Las Vegas -
4/24/2006I left Vero Beach, a.k.a., "Zero Beach" 9 months past. All of the posted comments are true in large part both pro and con. I actually moved to Henderson outside of Vagas. After 8 years of the peace found in Vero, Vegas is a shooting gallery. It is the most violent area I have every lived in. From flaming fatal car crashes on a multiple daily basis to an incredible amount of down and dirty crime by the minute, it brings new meaning to the phrase "wild West". Most of the above does not make national news, but 1 1/2 hours of daily evening news will give new insight to the uneducated. I tell all visiting friends- "Do not go to the Strip". You are placing yourself in harm's way to do so. Anne will fondly remember Zero Beach should she move to the "Valley". The home builders can't sell refrigerators, washers, or dryers as part of the new home package, because they are stolen as fast are they get installed. Plus the big surprise- there is not much to do, unless you consider giving your money to a casino entertaining. The best place place to go in Laas Vegas is the Nevada State Historical Museum. I was busier in Vero, but then as an artist I am able to entertain myself.

Vero Beach to Las Vegas- Re: Anne's comment -
4/24/2006I left Vero Beach, a.k.a., "Zero Beach" 9 months past. All of the posted comments are true in large part both pro and con. I actually moved to Henderson outside of Vagas, upscale and relatively peaceful, however, After 8 years of the peace found in Vero, Las Vegas is a shooting gallery. It is the most violent area I have every lived in.
