Review of Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, Nevada


Mesquite NV
Star Rating - 3/18/2018
This is a great place to live. The cost of living is reasonable. The only two months that are really hot are July and August, but the other 10 mos. offer some pretty fabulous weather. We are far enough away from LV to avoid the negatives but close enough to enjoy the positives. The people that live here are very friendly (I'm from the south and I know what I'm talking about.) We have no traffic issues, our overall crime rate is very low. Mesquite offers a lovely quality of life. Our casinos provide wonderful revenue to the town, along with great entertainment and restaurants. We have more golf courses here per capita than any other city in the US. Golf also contributes to the revenue of the town. Mesquite is based on recreation - how bad can that be? Because our weather is so fabulous we are a draw for outdoor activities beyond golf - hiking, biking, ATV'ing. Plus, within a couple of hours you can be at some of the best national parks in the US. I am one of many happy residents here in Mesquite!

Hi Barb! I've lived in Las Vegas for 53 years. I often think about moving to Mesquite, although I have never been there. I hear wonderful things about it. I was curious as to the available employment. Is it difficult to find employment there? We are really not ones to commute far distance so finding employment would be the deciding factor. My husband is retired US Army and is in maintenance. I'm telling you, the man can look or listen to anything mechanical and tell you within seconds what's wrong! I was a cocktail waitress for a while. Then managed a major grocery store in Vegas for 20 years. How is available employment in those areas? My email is below if you would like to respond that way. Any info is greatly appreciated and I thank you! Binkyboo65@gmail.com
