It’s a place to visit for 48 hours, then leave. - 7/3/2021
Lived here for 3 long years. Besides the laziest people in this pathetic work force, the wind in pretty constant all year. 40 mph is not unusual. Due to the lack of finding quality workers to do renovations to the crappy homes here, we’ve nicknamed Nevada the bare minimum state. Try renting here for a few months before moving into somewhere you can’t enjoy going outside. And yes, we’ve been looking at other home/locations, Boise Idaho is in our sites to Read More

Fast growing town that no one seems to leave - 9/15/2020
I grew up in this fast growing town and it feels like home. When my family first moved here in 2003, there was empty land and not a lot of people, but now it feels like there isn't much room left! This south suburb of Las Vegas is great because you get the view of the Strip which has the tall buildings, food, and nightlife of a city and a comfortable suburb with horses and trails. This place feels safe, and for the most part it is, but of course you will see some people that will make you nervous, but they tend to stick to themselves. I'm not sure about the crime in the area, because nothing had ever happened to me. I'm a young girl and I'd take the bus home at night and walk home by myself without ever being bothered. There are a lot of pedestrian accidents and disputes between families that get out of hand. The drivers here suck, but traffic isn't anything after living in California for a while. Everybody seems to move here and never leave. I did, but I only know a handful of other Read More

Not all it's cracked up to be - 12/29/2019
We currently live in Henderson and I am less than impressed. We moved here from Washington State, so we're used to really friendly people and courteous drivers. People here are emotionally detached and fairly rude and the drivers SUCK! No turn signals, people run red lights, and you get honked at if you don't move immediately. I haven't been here that long and I already can't wait to move away. Praying that a year goes by quickly. Read More

Great Place To Live - 5/13/2018
Hi, I have lived in Henderson since 1980 except for a 10 year period in Pahrump, NV. I believe Henderson to be a great city. Lots of parks and places to play and ride bikes. Close to all kinds of outdoor activities from boating to hiking in the mountains. If you have kids the schools in Henderson are much better than Las Vegas even though they are in the same school district. Nevada as a state doesn't have a very good reputation for education. I think it's the overall culture and participation by parents in Henderson that make it better. Henderson has the best Parks and Recreation in the valley. Lots of low cost and free activities for all ages. I hope you don't mind lots of wind, gets very windy here. I always feel safe here, even in the lower income neighborhoods. The biggest negative to moving to Southern Nevada is the poor medical. Lots of hospitals but a large shortage of Doctors. Most of the really good ones are not taking new Read More

HENDERSON, NV A GOOD PLACE TO RETIRE - 5/5/2018
AFTER GOING THROUGH THE NEW PROGRAM, I APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT WENT INTO THIS PROJECT..VERY USER FRIENDLY AND THE LEFT SIDE TITLE PROMPTS SAVE A LOT OF TIME.

Las Vegas to Henderson, Nv - 5/20/2015
After living all over the Las Vegas valley I made the move down to Henderson last year. So far I LOVE it. The overall quality of life is, for the most part, a lot better here. I plan to stick around for several Read More

Relocation in mind for Henderson - 2/11/2015
My Wife and I are thinking about moving to Henderson NV. We know Very Little about the town. We seek information from people who live in town so we can get the Real views of what the town is like. We seek Warmth for one, Safe areas where you can take a walk at night and not be fearful of being robbed or hurt . I am in the Mining field and was told there are mines in the area that hire on a regular bases. I work above ground and drive a 100 Ton Mine Hual truck.
We Now live in Pennsylvania but are so tired of the snow and cold and ice. We have lived in 7 states in our years for I was in the Military as a Navy Seal Commander so moved around alot. We seek to make this our last move. Any ideas would be very helpful. Thank you, take care all and Bless You all. David & Read More
