Las Vegas continuously reinvents itself, so even if you have been to our great city before you will never run out of fun things to do.

One hundred years ago Las Vegas was a small mining town containing a hand full of people. The small town experienced a major boom in the 40's during the building of The Hoover Dam. Today the Las Vegas Valley houses over 1,000,000 people. The center of town contains the majority of the hotels leaving the rest of the valley to residential community neighborhoods and small businesses.

Las Vegas is located in the southern corner of Nevada and is centered between a winter ski mountain resort and a large lake used mostly for boating, jet skiing and camping. The vast open deserts surrounding the Las Vegas area bring high thrills to any off road lover.

The mega resorts on the Las Vegas boulevard offer a wide variety of entertainment like: Theme parks, nightly shows, live music, state of the art arcades, indoor rock climbing, very low priced restaurants, all you can eat buffets and much, much more.

To accommodate the thousands of people who move here every year, the Las Vegas market offers a great number of new homes comprised of over 300 tracts each with their own different floor plans. Also available on the market, thousands of resale homes, ranging from the high 80' in lower income areas all the way up to the absolutely stunning homes on lake and mountain sides with price tags into the millions.

A large number of retirees relocate to Las Vegas every year for the warm, dry weather, low cost of living and the Sun City developments. To accommodate seniors needs, two communities were built (Sun City at Green Valley & Sun City at Summer Land) as suburbs to the Las Vegas area.

Sun City offers residents 65 years and over two large communities of single family residences with golf course, walking trails, stores, peace of mind and quiet.

Although Las Vegas is the largest gaming city in the world, tourism is centered around the casinos (in the center of town ) leaving the surrounding residential neighborhoods virtually untouched by its presence. Have a great time in our wonderful city!
