Summerlin and Henderson are the best places to live in the Las Vegas Metro area. For me i'd love to be in the Green Valley Ranch area. Very safe, quiet and have that tight knit community feel
Thanks for watching!
I lived in both but I now live in Downtwon Summerlin and I love it here cant see myself living anyplace else
Can’t blame you, it’s such a nice area!
Moved this summerlin 20 years ago from Minnesota. We do not regret it it is a great place to live. It is true this much cooler here than anywhere else in town because of the altitude. I paid $128,000 for my house, today it's worth over half-a-million. Living in the desert does require some unique skill-sets that you are not aware of if you are from anywhere else in the world
Thanks for watching, Michael! Happy to hear you love it here!
Curious as to what special skill sets you are referring to, Michelle. I’m from Iowa but have been looking at a possible relocation. Any additional information you have as a Midwest transplant in Summerlin would be appreciated.
@@dangetz1888 well for example in this last month has been 114 degrees so you'll learn not to do things in the day and you do things at night. You must also constantly be drinking water. It takes a while to get used to the Head depends on how old you are. However rest of the year is amazing. It's those 90 days of heat that require skill you can learn online before moving here here. And good luck with your move
Moving to summerlin in 3 months from MN. Wish me luck
@@Getshartedon how are things working out for you in Las Vegas
Ill sum it up. If you like bougie (snob) then you might like summerlin (depending on your preference). Henderson is for the non bougie.
A well, balanced review w/ a lot of important information. Thanks!
Very balanced and unbiased views. Great video! 👍
Thanks Sunshine! We appreciate you watching! 😊😊
They're both great !
Oh my.... Could listen to you both all day. Informative and not pushy like some of the other Vegas real estate channels. We are planning to retire with our brother in-law in a couple of years to Vegas. I need to check your other posting!
Thanks for the kind words, Oscar!! We’re here if we can help with anything 😊😊
Both are very nice, and good information here. Happy to be in either actually, but henderson is now home. Thanks guys
Thanks for watching Bill!
Always smile when I see you have a new video. Love your information and presentation. Thank you!
Aww thank you Mike! 😊😊
Henderson is a lot quieter. And year after year has ranked in the top 10 in the US for parks and recreation for medium size cities. There's so many hidden gems of a neighborhood within Green Valley and Black Mountain.
Agreed! Thanks for watching, Riv! 😊
Naturally occurring asbestos is found in Henderson, Nevada. A 2013 study found that the region has many mineral deposits that contain natural asbestos, from the southern shore of Lake Mead to the McCullough Range. The study also found that the asbestos fibers near Boulder City and the eastern part of Henderson are similar in shape and size to those found in Libby.
I am a Summerlin snob lol.
Ain’t nothing wrong with that 🥂
Amen!
Lol still in the desert. Don't see why anyone would be snobby about that😅
I am so happy that you pointed out the fact that Summerlin is both in the City of Las Vegas and a good chunk, everything south of Sahara is in unincorporated Clark County, which in my opinion is a major advantage so as not to be under the thumb of the City of Las Vegas and it's "issues". Summerlin is also good in that one is guaranteed that there will always be a control to keep low quality development out and keep the community nicely planned and consistent quality unlike most of the metro area which has a hodge podge feeling. Do keep in mind flight patterns and associated noise potential. The far northwest part of Las Vegas gets a lot of noise from Nellis.
Thanks for watching, Ken! We agree!
You need to do a video just for Henderson. Henderson has multiple communities from Cadence to Inspirada. Hendertucky to Green Valley. Trying to compare Henderson to Summerlin is like comparing a car to a truck. Forgot to mention Henderson has better public schools schools than Summerlin.
Very true! Great suggestion!
Thanks for the great video. Whenever I’m in Las Vegas from the UK, I drive around both Summerlin and Henderson quite a bit. I’ve always had my mind set on Henderson if I was to get the opportunity to move out to the US but after seeing this video I’m now swaying towards Summerlin. Keep up the good work guys
Thanks for watching, and for the kind words! 🙌
love your top
Aww thank you 🤗
I like Summerlin cuz I really live inside Red Rock Canyon.
For nature enthusiasts like yourselves Summerlin is definitely the way to go. We love that bicyclists can cycle straight to the Red Rock from many houses
Thank you for all of the great info. I’m planning to move my family to one of the areas from Detroit within the next year.
Thanks for watching! Kristen is originally from the Ann Arbor area. Here if we can help with anything 😊😊
I like industrial modern gated community apartments high rise style. Are there any apartments like that in style that you would recommend?
Hi! Thanks for watching. Yes there are. If you send us an email we will share all of the options with you 😊 Info@TheThomasGroupLV.com
Best in the business these two.
Thanks for watching and the kind words Luke! 🙌
Loved the video, I’m also from Michigan and plan on moving to Vegas in a few years !
Thanks for watching Summer! Here whenever you need anything 😊
When I moved from SoCal, my realtor showed me homes in Summerlin and Henderson. I wanted an ultra-modern home with views. I ended up buying a new construction in Lake Las Vegas which is in Henderson. It has a beautiful view of the lake. I didn't see anything as nice in Summerlin and I had a very healthy budget. The only down side to LLV, it's a little out of the way (could be a plus for some). The shopping is definitely better in Summerlin.
The views in Lake Las Vegas are unparalleled!
Planning on moving from Southern California. I never ever cared for the beach. I alwYs preferred rural deserts and mountains. Just a hard working blue collar guy who minds his own and doesnt judge anybody. Ive always felt comfortable in the outer vegas areas. If i cant do this area, I'd probably be in Fallon
I think she meant to say “had Lake Mead”
What about condo living? I’m from Michigan also and my wife and I love to play golf…
Hi Carl! A fellow Michigander. There are great condos in both Summerlin and Henderson. Good golf courses in both as well, so you can’t go wrong either way.
Do you do rentals? Looking forward to moving from Reno to Las Vegas in November.
Hi Dennis, thanks for watching! Please email us - Info@TheThomasGroupLV.com
Best area to buy duplexes within high 300s or low 400s
Doesn’t really exist out here, Ken. Send us an email with your criteria and we’ll give you our best advice - Info@TheThomasGroupLV.com
why never review the northwest LV... Silverstone ranch for example?
I been there, its real quiet and has that one nice big park it just isn't as well known i think is why..
How does Henderson or Summerlin compare to Spring Valley? Those seem to be the places we have narrowed down our search to.
Hey Mike! Spring Valley is a totally different vibe. It’s older and more commercial whereas Summerlin and parts of Henderson are more suburbia.
Do you have any videos on Rentals? And jobs in the Henderson area?
We don’t generally work rentals so unfortunately we don’t have any videos on them. Wishing you all the best on your search!
between the two which has more rental potential?
Hey Gerald! They are both extremely popular with investors/rentals due to their good school districts. Henderson tends to be a little less expensive, but they get similar ROI. Here to help when you’re ready to invest!
Is there a concern about the water situation there?
Thanks for the video, I will be moving there in May and I want to move to Henderson.
Thanks for watching, Tanya! Here if we can help with anything 😊😊
Henderson safest place in U.S and no homeless
what part of Las Vegas is Elkhorn Grove? Is that part of Summerlin?
Hi! Thanks for watching. The only Elkhorn Grove we are familiar with is in North Las Vegas.
Does Vegas area have water restrictions? How does lake Mead water loss effect the real estate market?
R
Yes, we have restrictions on watering our exterior landscaping. There is also a new law restricting swimming pool limit size. So far, Lake Mead hasn't had much affect although it could in the future.
Ins and out according to your opinions.
I'm thinking of relocating from New York, but I'm quite nervous. I don't want a house, I'm thinking of getting a condo. Im not sure where though
Thanks for watching! We’ve helped TONS of people from New York. Upstate and the city. Shoot us an email on what’s important to you along with the price and we’ll send you some pointers on where to look 😊 email us - Info@TheThomasGroupLV.com
I would love to stay in Summerlin. What about small minority business owners in both Summerlin and Henderson?
We have both in Henderson and Summerlin 😊
if Lake Mead goes dry, where will the water come from ?
Hi Bill!
Thanks for watching!
Maybe we are naive, but we strongly believe the US government won’t let a place with millions and millions of people just disappear. The government also has big interests here in the way of military bases and a pretty well known alien station🛸👽 There’s also so much big money here, and we all know how the world works.
The majority of the water at lake mead is being used by California and terrible farming practices. We believe that these issues will be addressed, it’s just a matter of time.
We don't enjoy or need to eat out much anymore and could careless about shopping or schools because we home school our two young children.. Sounds like Henderson may be a better fit for us if we ever return to the usa. We are currently enjoying a very happy stress free quality of life as retired expats living in the Philippines, which to us is a far better culture and quality of life than we ever found in the usa. Thanks fo the video. J&M
Thanks for watching! We have a lot of great friends in the Philippines. Such wonderful people. Best wishes to you 😊
Between Henderson and Summerlin which one has less traffic assuming more and more people will move to Las Vegas vicinity
Hi Rob!
Thanks for watching.
Las Vegas is much bigger than Henderson, so Las Vegas in general, BUT, it does heavily depend on where you live/are looking. There are places in Henderson that are heavy on traffic, while in some areas in Las Vegas its suuuuper quiet. Send us an email if you want more specific info - Info@TheThomasGroupLV.com 😊
Could you discuss which neighborhoods within the Vegas metro area are the most liberal and conservative? Henderson and Summerlin both sound great to my husband and I. We are a same sex family and living amongst neighbors that share our values and beliefs is important to us.
You’ll find a good mix in most neighborhoods and we imagine you’d be comfortable in both Henderson and Summerlin. Las Vegas is pretty diverse. Happy to have a more in depth chat- info@thethomasgrouplv.com
north las vegas: marcia, marcia, marcia. henderson strip views win vs mountain views that 15+ other states have.

Summerlin where the rich Californians go.
I'm a guy and I also like to go close to los angeles international airport and just look at planes land
How could you not mention Lake Las Vegas, in Henderson, Of Course! 😀
Hello! Great video! I was wondering out of summerlin and Henderson, which area is more diverse?
Hi Sam! Thanks for watching! When you say diverse, are you meaning diverse in terms of social demographics or architecture etc?
@@thethomasgrouplv Thanks for replying! I was wondering about the social demographics. Which area is more diverse in the sense of more than one ethnic background or culture?
@@syb_764 our guess would be Henderson, but it wouldn’t surprise us if it was evenly balanced.
So it snows more in Summerlin than Henderson?
Hi Carlos, yes 😊😊
@@thethomasgrouplv wow that was a very fast reply, I’m impressed.
I’m in Corona, Ca and my house is on the market. Indecisive whether to move out to Phoenix metro area or Vegas metro.
I just seen your video, I’m really liking Summerlin or Henderson. I have a family, 2 small boys.
Not looking to buy yet, rent. Can you help?
@@MrCarlosVillasenor Hi Carlos, if you send us an email with what you are looking for, we’ll try and help/point you in the right direction - info@TheThomasGroupLV.com

I've lived in Henderson for 22 yrs and there I enough shopping and restaurants here for anyone plus we are closer to the strip. Summerlin isn't as safe or personable as Henderson. Summerlin isn't all that.
Cute couple!
Thanks Kevin 😊
If you haven't seen snow in Henderson, you obviously haven't been in Anthem or Sin City Anthem. We've had snow here the last 3 winters.
0.5mm 🤣
What can 600k-700k buy in Vegas with todays market? I know its indeed a buyers market and someone can get a nice (once upon time high priced) home for much less . I am planning on retiring from Toronto Canada as its way too expensive here + the 4 full seasons from super hot to super winter cold. Looking for the excitement of Vegas I am a city and car guy. I hear Sema is the largest car show in the world.
Hi! It definitely depends on the area you’re looking in. There are still great pockets of town where $600-700k can get you an incredible home.
@@thethomasgrouplv thank you very much. And it also depends on the market. Prices are going down everywhere. A buyer's market indeed.
Henderson people are a lot different than Summerlin I moved to Henderson and now we are hoping for prices to drop pre pandemic to buy
Glad you like living in Henderson! We'd love to help you buy when the time is right for you :)
@@thethomasgrouplv For sure send me a message when you think we can start lowballing
@@greek19801 This is the time to get a deal. Buyers market will be gone in 3-6 months.
Big difference from one side of Henderson to the other. I've lived on both. I live over by the M Resort. It used to be a nice place to live. Now it has become over populated, the traffic is crazy, especially in the morning and commute home. Plus the price of homes and rent have gone through the roof thanks to all the CA transplants. You could rent a nice home for 1200 now that same home is going for over 2400. Houses in the area just a couple years ago you could buy for 225,000 to 300,000...now those same houses are going for 600,000 up to 800,000. School systems have become over populated...35 to 40 students per teacher on this side of town. My son just graduated in 2022 thankfully as the school system every year has gone down hill. And they just approved a 1000 more house in this area. And don't get me started on how strict the HOA's are in this side of town. Blade of grass out of place or a small paint chip and you are getting written up. I moved here in 2008 and it was nice and quite, but now it feels like a city and over crowded. All the houses have 10 foot backyards and you can knock on the neighbors window to borrow sugar. Plus, as mention, rent in this area has gone up on average over 600 per month.
We have had houses out here in early part of 2022 get bought for $220,000 to $300,000 and are now selling for over $700,000. Some have already dropped $90,000 in price. The pricing here have outpriced what locals can afford. Great if you are coming from CA or such and sold your home for a huge amount, but most locals can't afford the new prices with what they make for pay out here.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
@@thethomasgrouplv I am still looking at buying at some point when the prices come back down to earth. I will keep you guys in mind. I was hoping to see if the USGA was going to release some land in Sloan or Jean that was affordable to get a construction loan through them and build. Keep me in mind if something comes up in the future. The price for a 1/2 acre is crazy right now in Henderson.
@@MojaveModelRailroad Have you looked into Bullhead city are? Cheaper and more quiet seems perfect for you? I find Henderson super affordable compared to Canada lol
If Summerlin were an automobile, it'd be a BMW. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I wonder why a lot of people don't like Cadence or kind of act like it doesn't exist.
A lot of our clients don’t like that is was built on an old toxic waste ground. Although remediated, it puts some people off.
Yep. I’m moving to Cadence. Anytime you mention it, people turn their noses up or act like they didn’t hear you.
Summerlin
My heart will say Henderson but brain is summerlin.
How about north of the stratosphere and north east Las Vegas?
Hi Dennis. If you’re looking for low income housing. It can be found right close to the stratosphere. There are parts of the north east that are gorgeous, and there are parts that have low income housing.
@@thethomasgrouplv I am not. I was being sarcastic. Great video btw.
@@dennis771 Thanks for watching! 🙌
Grew up TROP N BOULDER.
Bought a house in Henderson at sun city anthem but I always have to emphasize we're on the west side. East side is where old Henderson is with old crappy neighborhood. They have to change the name of the place, like summerlin has its own.
In a way they have. You are in the masterplan of Anthem, much like Summerlin is a masterplanned community but in the city of Las Vegas. If you tell people in Vegas you live in Anthem, it's similar to living in Summerlin :) Thanks for watching!
OK,Henderson is not a neighborhood Henderson is it's own city!
Correct 😊👍
good info but should have been on actual sites
Henderson is an entirely separate city from Las Vegas
Not sure if you’re sharing this for everyone else, but we did mention this 😊
Henderson is easier to get to the airport
Agreed! Thanks for watching 😊

Henderson has the nicer people, Summerlin feels like a bunch of snobs who didn’t have money to keep up with the snobs in LA.
Haha 👍

I'm thinking the same thing. Where in Thailand?
Maybe you are not aware that 90% of the firms reduce their pay to the state the employee is moving to, so they may save on State taxes, but then they get a pay reduction.
For retirees Soc Sec is same amount wherever you live, and with lower cost living can go further. Withdrawals from IRAs are free of state taxes.

Compare Summerlin to Green Valley. The rest of Hendotucky is a dump.
Well we also have Anthem, Seven Hills, and Inspirada just to name a few. Usually when people are comparing “Henderson” to Summerlin they include those neighborhoods along with Green Valley. Thanks for watching!
@@thethomasgrouplv Anthem 7 hills McDonald's ranch is all considered Green Valley.
I live here.
They are separate masterplanned communities. 🧐

Same with Summerlin has separate Master plan communities.
