    I’ve lived here my whole life. Never once have I been “tempted” to do bad shit. I’m now about to graduate with a law degree. I like this city. You can find “bad shit” in any city. It’s more about who you are and the choices you make.

      There’s temptation everywhere, is why we are here for, to be tempted, tested, but also to win! We just need to call for help, pray for strength, and sometimes just the obvious things like stay away of certain people.. that’s a pretty basic thing. I know some kids feel alone, but I also believe even when we think we are alone, God send us someone to show us the good way, and is up to us to follow or not.

    I'm fascinated with the diversity of opinions on Vegas. I grew up elsewhere and life/work/schooling took me to south Texas, south Florida, Wisconsin, Illinois, Utah, Ohio, Georgia, even overseas for a few years, but I've spent the the bulk of my adult life in Vegas. There are some nice things like food and live music (and no income tax) but as for the rest, I'm OUT as soon as life circumstances make it possible. It is not a place I've liked raising kids - it's easy enough to stay away from the drug/vice culture but the public schools are.... (no family friendly words I care to use).... it's bad. So bad. We've had to put our kids into private school and that costs more than our mortgage. And the summer is misery. You can't take your kids outside for more than a few minutes, you have to start any outdoor exercise at 4am otherwise it gets too hot, the economy is so undiversified (tourism, tourism, tourism) that if anything disrupts that (fuel costs, labor strikes, flight/trucking disruptions, a virus) then even if you don't work in the hospitality industry, the trickle-down effect is still very real. The few "outdoor" spots that everyone loves to bring up (Mt. Charleston, Red Rocks, Lake Mead, Valley of Fire) -- once you've been to each a few dozen times, it's pretty boring. And poor Lake Mead - prolonged drought has made it a ghost of its former self. We've worked very hard to garden and had some success, but not without a lot of time, money and effort. It is like trying to grow stuff on the surface of the moon. Would I move here again? Yes, because I love my family and that is what brought me here to begin with. Am I counting the minutes until we can leave? YES!

    I'm watching your video and it is March 2023. It's nice hear your personal experience living in Henderson, and not from a local real estate agent. LOL! I wonder how you're still feeling about Henderson one year later. Assuming that you are still living there. I'm from San Diego and I can't afford to buy a home here. Not to mention California tax is killing me. So looking at Henderson. It is ranked #3 as the safest city in the US. And the thought of not paying state tax is really attractive. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Great review, Tony. I'm moving up there shortly, and I agree the only negative item is the sight of gambling casinos. Fortunately, they are clearly labeled, so one need only stay away from them. As far as the machines in commercial locations, they are depressing. To see the underside of the human experience so starkly emphasized is dark and uncomfortable. But the blight I'm leaving behind in Los Angeles, the human sh*t on the sidewalk, the smashed glass at the bus stop's movie poster display case, the insane aggressive people that keep coming up to me when I go for my morning walk, I'll be happy to trade them for the eye sore of a slot machine. Well, not happy, but I'll do it. I'm so sick of LA. They just passed a law that makes it illegal for the cops to arrest a hooker for standing on the sidewalk, soliciting. So you know within weeks, every street corner in LA and the Valley will have hookers on them. It was like that in 1978 when I first moved here. Horrible. I thought LA could not get worse; I was WRONG.

The appeal of gambling, drugs, sex are really every where. It's like you said parenting would be key. Though i would talk about the supposedly terrible school system if you were going into long term plans. Thank you for the video it gave me a lot to think about.

    There’s lots of lds churches in there, and other churches, so there’s good influences, if the 17 year old chose to be around the bad influences, that was his choice. I lived in SP/Brazil with all that you said, legalized prostitution, people doing drugs, etc. Even with PTSD I chose to stay around the “good” kids. Yes our environment makes things harder, but in the end is up to us to get out of the victim mentality.

    Lastly, if you have a good tip paying job...... let’s just say that after all of my bills are paid which INCLUDES saving over $1,000.00 a month, i can STILL have $300-$400 dollars in my pocket a day before payday!!!!
    Lastly, one of the things that suck is the auto insurance out here!!!! Over a year ago, when i did have a car 🚗, i decided to sale it because i simply grew very vexed about getting ripped off with auto insurance!!!! Driving a 2009 Infinity GX37 Coupe, my full coverage insurance at BEST should be no more than $110.00 monthly for a man my age and a clean drubbing record!!!!
