The housing and economy in a city like Vegas is too iffy. I would not bank my life on living there.

My last house had more backyard space, but less interior space (that was in Henderson).

I'd by lying however if I didn't say that I wasn't in love with the 2 offices that we have, and the other 3 bedrooms. The 2 car garage is also a treat, as is the long carpark that'll fit another 4to 5 cars in case of a get-together.

This is just a temporary stay for my wife and I however. Initially we were going to move to San Francisco for a bit, but having a baby on the way changes things. I'm thinking we'll most likely stay in Vegas until our child is in college, and then we'll look to retire in a place like Boston. I'll also re-purchase a home in a more spacious neighborhood when I feel it's the right time to pull the trigger again.

As for the crime...I'm sorry to those that have experienced it. I've had some minor run-in's throughout my life when I was younger, but it was always because I put myself in a bad situation where those things could happen. Not once however, have I felt unsafe living in Las Vegas or Henderson, and I hope I never do.

I lived in Vegas.. It's a dirty nasty city. Hookers, Pimps, Drug users, homeless people everywhere. Nice place to visit. Maybe it would be different if you had big money and lived on the outskirts. Still desert and hot as hell tho

Jesus...Where did you live while you were in Vegas? I've never seen any of the above in any of the places I've lived (and I've lived here 29 years).

Too weird to live, and too rare to die
