What's it like living in Las Vegas? Well there's amazing sunny weather year-round, and it's one of the best places to live in Nevada! It's also the largest city in the state and one of the fastest growing cities in the USA, due to so many people moving here from LA and San Francisco, California since it's one of the most affordable cities out West in one of the Cheapest States in America!
While you normally think of Vegas as only a place you visit, Sin City is actually becoming one of the best cities for both young professionals and families to live in as well with some of the best suburbs in the country like Henderson and Summerlin. If people love living here, and so many new people want to move here, then why shouldn't you relocate to the Las Vegas, NV?

I love this my guest room is very nice and I love seeing my friends and family 💖

I have a messy, cluttered house and I always remind them what a hassle it is to go to the strip.
Why would you ever live anywhere near Vegas if you didn’t love that… is my question…
Omg that's why I dont want to go lol
Born and raised here and you hitting everythinggg. Big on the isolated from each other. We ask each other what high school we attended to know how much damage we’re dealing with. Each neighborhood is a mini state
Born and raised too!! On point lmaooo
@Erik Gonzalez Bingo
I went too Legacy. Do not recommend 😂
I wish to move in Vegas with my family wife and two kids, briefly what do you advise me TO MOVE OR NOT ??
I have lived in Las Vegas for 11 years now. I freaking LOVE living here. People are super friendly, my neighborhood is quiet, and there's always something fun to do if you want to. I was also able to start my own business even though I didn't have a lot of money 11 years ago. Life is great, and Vegas will always be my home.
For me the biggest downside is the obscenely hot weather. When it's 90 here in Los Angeles i find it unbearable but triple digits every day (during the season) sounds pretty gruesome
@@truman4550 I'm not a Californian. :)
@@gumerzambrano If you work indoors, it's not bad. :)
growing up in vegas i can definitely say ppl are usually not friendly or social i can say lol. Everyone is usually on the go & its not usual to have a random friendly conversation with a stranger. i saw a huge difference once i moved.
@@RadiantInc Congratulations on your success. I wish there are more successful stories out there.
I live in southern Nevada. Here are the two main things I believe everyone should understand before deciding to relocate to Las Vegas: 1) Many Las Vegas jobs are related to the hospitality industry (motels, restaurants, car rentals...) and/or entertainment (gambling, big shows, stripper bars, tours...) and when tourism is off because of a pandemic or other economic downturn many local jobs disappear and 2) Las Vegas house prices vary widely with a kind of boom and bust cycle every ten to fifteen years (never buy a new home at the top of the market, just rent a place and wait for a big drop in the economy and then buy a bank foreclosed house). So, if you are self-employed and can work from home anywhere in the U.S. via the internet or are retired with a good pension, a downturn of the local tourism-based economy should not adversely impact your income/lifestyle. And if you can wait until the local housing market enters the bust part of the boom and bust cycle, you can get a lot more square footage for your money.
By the way, Las Vegas has a busy modern airport, so if you get restless and want to visit another city where it rains/snows/has lots of lawns, just fly there instead of driving for half a day or longer.
There is plenty to do outdoors during cool winter weather in the desert around Las Vegas if you like to hike, mountain bike, camp, rock hound, ride a horse, do nature photography, prospect for gold, off-road in an ATV, etc. The U.S.'s second largest wildlife preserve is just north of Las Vegas. Lake Mead is nearby if you have a fishing boat. Quartzsite, AZ is about a day's drive away if you want weeks of inexpensive RV camping on public land during the winter.
The easiest ways to meet Las Vegas residents are to join a local house of worship or become a volunteer with a local chapter of a charity organization. Forget about hanging out at sidewalk cafes every day or being able to walk from your apartment to the corner coffee shop or bar --- Las Vegas is not Paris or NYC -- it's freaking hot here during the summer and everyone who can do so stays indoors in the air conditioning during the summer.
Raised here in Las Vegas!! This is the most accurate thing I’ve seen by far 😁
Im from europe visited las vegas and i would love to live there.... Im also not very social so thats a good place for me, not that i dont want to meet new people!

I am a Las Vegas resident of Vegas for over 10 years now. VEGAS has changed significantly since the pandemic. VEGAS is turning into California 2.0 and VEGAS is not a cheap place to live if you own a vehicle such as DMV registration fees, insurance rates and the utility bills..
You just described the bills everyone goes through lol
@@gumerzambrano Insurance is more expensive here and utility bills are not as cheap as you think because of the heat and even the cold in the winter
@@hiphipjorge5755 Everything else is cheaper tho. Didn't know insurance was higher. I thought CA insurance was high 🤣
You're right, Loren. Cali 2.0. I'm already working on an exit strategy. Sisolak imploded the economy with the shutdowns and it's not coming back. It took a solid 6 years to recover after '08 and I'm not waiting around to find out if it bounces back this time.
Callilng Vegas Californai 2.0 is too much. There are no thieves walking into the store, homeless infestation, no income and sales tax, LA traffic, housing is still cheaper than California, and I could go on and on.
I moved out to Vegas from Jersey almost two yrs ago...and I'd do it again
I grew up in Jersey , went back for a year and left again! It’s so hard to be successful in Jersey.... soooo expensive
Uh, yeah!!!!! Jersey ????? I just bet you would like Vegas.
As someone who was born and raised here, you were easy on Vegas in this video
Ah a rare breed. I’m even more rare. Born and raised in henderson. Don’t meet too many pure bred Nevadans.
lmao
I'm moving to vegas in a couple weeks, tell me the pros and cons
@@kailarcr123 pros: always sunny, rainstorms leave a great smell. So much to do outdoors and the people are actually nice if you give them a chance. Also everything is open super late.
Cons: drivers/traffic, some tourists, the strip (depends on your perspective), everything might be a far drive, summer heat.

The bar in Oklahoma city is pretty low heh.
I was born and raised in Vegas which is really rare. There are jobs here and NOT just in the hospitality industry. Everyone doesn’t work in a casino, we have plenty of hospitals. I’m in the medical field and the opportunities are endless SO all that no job bs I see in these comments need to change their career.
IJS 🤷🏽♀️
Where is y'all UPS WAREHOUSE located because I would consider to transfer there. Love Vegas
Thank you!
@Erik Gonzalez First of all your opinion is irrelevant lol I’m guessing you don’t even live here, but feel the need to comment. It’s actually 57% that rely on the hospitality industry while 28.6% for tourism. Next time check your stats bruh
@Erik Gonzalez Hospitals do not rely on tourism in Vegas lol You forgot about the other 651,000 residents, not to mention the neighboring cities that you easily cross over into (Henderson, Southern Highlands, North Las Vegas, Summerlin etc).I’m in the medical field and know for a fact that’s inaccurate. All states have airports so your reaching to make that a point and irrelevant once again. Like I stated in my original post there’s more to Vegas than just the strip that’s approximately 4.225 miles. It’s obvious I’m talking to the wall so have a good day, my time is money and I don’t get paid to reply to your opinions.
@Erik Gonzalez you r on point, she must be new here
Vegas is fun... but Vegas can also be very depressing.
I just wish I lived by more hills😭
As a new resident for the last year & a half. It is depressing

I live here but it’s not that bad
@@Xanderzilla yes it is especially job wise
Ok ill move here
@@donovanchildress6963 you’re right about that the job pay sucks sorry folks better have one lined up before you get here.
As a resident of Las Vegas for over 10 years I find it astounding that people with families and young children would even consider moving to Las Vegas only as the close proximity to California.
"Almost perfect weather." Wtf?! I've lived here for 11 years and the hot weather is why I want to leave.
When it's in the 100s in Vegas it's in the high 70s and breezie in San Diego 🙌🏽 love visiting SD from LA
Right? I live in Vegas too and it's super hot for like 5 months out of the year. Then we get maybe 1 month of decent weather and it starts getting windy.
Walking on campus at UNLV always resulted in me getting to class sweating lol.
@@THE_BEAR_JEW Try Houston and see how bad the summer is here?
@@THE_BEAR_JEW An inglourious basterd?
Been to Las Vegas plenty of times and I love it still moving there and convinced me to more. And the heat complaint isn't that much of a problem I'm from Texas we're use to crazy weather
I moved her a year ago from San Diego, and I love it! There are actually a lot of beautiful residential areas here and I love the diverse restaurants.
If you like to gamble - you will love it, outside of that-the video is spot on I sign under every statement, it gets boring and isolating very quick. Men usually prefer dry heat even over 115 f, women- hate it, the skin and hair just never the same, no matter what lotions you use. And I lived in Florida, I’ll take Miami any day over Las Vegas. 115-117 is just way too much, no joke I was crying cuz I couldn’t take that heat any more by the end of October. 2020 was the longest summer in history, broke all records for longest and driest summer. We didn’t get any rain the whole year. I’m finally moving to Cali next months, can’t wait!
@@misirina3833 I've been to Las Vegas many times heat didn't bother me as much as Florida when I visited Miami and got sunburn 😣 I personally don't gamble much but I love the Mountains and overall scenery there. Good luck in California it's very beautiful but a little weird in my opinion 😉
I lived in Los Angeles for 9 years (1986 - 1998). A lot of resident were bailing to Las Vegas especially after the Northridge Earthquake. Now when I visit Las Vegas, I feel like I'm in California.
Vegas is only 30 miles from the California state line. Reno is even closer at 10 miles from California state line.
Well, why are you amazed? Don't you and your fellow Californians want to make the world into California, with expensive housing, a worldwide homelessness and excrement and needle epidemic, shitty driving habits, and arrogant liberal yuppies, most of whom never worked in their lives? And liberals are supposed to support and defend the working-class, the majority of which are living in a tent in skid row right now.
One day he will make about , 10 reasons not to live in Earth
on
Also Vegas as a whole outside of the strip where most locals don’t go there is a lot for children and people under 21 to do things
I agree
Im moving to Vegas in a month. Can’t wait. Visited many times and love what Nevada has to offer. It has its ups and down just like every other place. There’s nothing wrong with suburban living. It’s nice and well established place. You can live here which is nicer than most places in Cali and way cheaper.
lol no it ain't. there's no freaking water in Vegas
You forgot about all the homeless. I lived there, from 2010 till 2017. It wasn't that bad at first, but the last couple years, got out of control. Thousands of people, living in tents, along N. Las Vegas blvd. I would never go out at night, unless I was downtown, or on the strip. Or, specifically someplace, with security, and well lit. But during the day, there's no place on earth, as good. People, seem to be in a utopia.
For the most part, these are pure facts. Been here since 06. Homes prices have skyrocketed. One year ago we paid just over $315k for a brand new build (2200 sqft)in the new north side. That exact same home costs over $380k just 9 months later.
I wouldn’t be surprised if more people start getting over the cost of living in Nevada like they do in LA one day. I’m pretty sure Las Vegas and Austin will be the places more people are gonna hate a lot one day when the cost of living isn’t gonna be more affordable for more people.
Yeah and I'm guessing it's probably getting pretty close to $500k now, 7 months after your comment.
I was in Las Vegas last August during a heat wave 115 degrees and it didn't feel too bad due to the dry heat!!!
Moved to Henderson in 2019 after living in Destin Florida for over 3 decades.
Absolutely love my new stomping ground .
I live in a very quiet , clean , adult neighborhood with almost zero traffic l close to parks, trails , mountains etc.
Or I can chose to drive 20 minutes and be on the strip with the best entertainment , restaurants , shopping and nightlife anywhere on the planet !
What’s not to love 👍🏼
@Erik Gonzalez perhaps you should have visited some trails and parks instead of just hanging around the tourist traps 😁
@Erik Gonzalez they have a really cool canyon mule ride that includes a cowboy breakfast and lunch…..
You’re going to be on your mule for several hours.
Your ass is going to hurt like no tomorrow if you haven’t been riding horses in a while, but damn is it fun 😂
Sorry I'm a bit late, I went camping up in the Adirondacks over the weekend and had school today. Now that I have some free time on my hands, I get to watch some From Here to There :)
I just love how cheap it is here, and how there isn’t as much traffic as other cities.
I'm planning to start a life with my girlfriend there. I am excited.
@@Fifabeast389 my girlfriend and I go to school here and plan to buy a home here. Its really a great place to live, especially with how we are just a few hours away from the beach, Zion, Grand Canyon.
It was cheap now its cali 2.0
Haven't seen these kinds of videos in a while, can tell it's getting good
Always hyped when I see that From Here to There posted a new video! Keep em coming
Agree its so bad in here. Just visit the strip and go back home.
While I love Las Vegas, I wouldn't ever move there because it would take a lot of the excitement out of being there. Seeing the massive casino towers, lights and tourists would become casual after so long.
cities change over time we're gonna have to start building up at some point
lived in Vegas... would not move back
Would you move to Florida right now
Me too but I still love it. Just couldn’t see myself staying forever.
I would definitely move to Florida right now.
Been here 5 years and hoping to move out to San Francisco in september. Vegas is not for me, dont like to party, dont like the heat, dont like the people. People judge here too much and arent friendly and the city is ugly, all brown.
@@mrike5651 i live in Florida
Try to live in Summerlin, Henderson and Southern Highlands in Las Vegas, yeah most of the things you mentioned here are true (sub par area). But if you want to live peacefully and in a cleaner, better area just go to these 3 master planned communities.
For sure if you’re trying to raise a family and you WANT to live in Vegas, those are the way to go.
If you have money that is
Those are the most expensive parts of the Vegas metropolitan area
Centennial Hills is nice as well
None of these reasons are going to stop me from moving there in the fall! I Love Vegas! That aside, I still enjoyed the video and really love the stock footage compilation for Vegas that you've put together. Some of those shots are stunning! 😎👍
we're full
@@himmyneutron5769 Then get out. I'll leave you a spot here in the boonies of South Carolina
Vegas is nice. Not perfect but honestly rather be here then a lot of other places. My family is from Los Angeles area and most of us are all out here and been out here for years and honestly I love it. Again, some things I don’t like but there’s always something to do, a lot of entertainment, they’re still building up so many new areas, cost of living is not too bad, there’s traffic sometimes but not as bad as Traffic in LA lol. Weather is interesting some times lol
its literally a hellhole here
@@kylissasimmons342 like the once a year rain fall that’s super hard and lasts 10 minutes 😂
So which damn city I should live in this country??😐
LOL
Boston
Honestly every city has pros and cons so I think it's up to you to weigh them. He bashes all over Cali yet it's still a great place to be
Compton
@@mij5786 it’s really not that bad anymore. San Bernardino is probably worse than Compton
There’s a lot to do here off the strip that’s just a bonus. Summerlin wasn’t even mentioned.......

no offense but thats kinda low

@@eddiew2325 yes. I used to think I was middle class because I’m pretty frugal. Then I read some financial books and realized i was considered lower class. Later, Another driver told me, “you know, most of us qualify for food stamps.” So I applied when the pandemic started and got accepted for EBT.
Dang, that's a little over $11/hr full time job year round. That's good ebt was able to help. Best to look for state job.
@@stevelozano9523 I make $17.28/hour.
You hit a nail on the head. I can’t believe you got me! Lived here the longest 4 years of my life- got to the lowest point of my life-not financially but emotionally and mentally. The city is extremely isolating, dull and boring. If you are outdoorsy and not a partier -stay away. This is the most disconnected from nature I ever felt in my life and I spend more time outside then most. There’s no grass, you won’t be walking barefoot -there’s just dust and rocks and asphalt everywhere. People don’t small talk- it’s normal to just stare at your neighbors but no hi, no wave no nod or anything. I talk to a lot of strangers in the stores just cuz I need some socializing and majority are moved from somewhere else and consider Vegas comfortable but least favorite place to live. They kind of get stuck here for a lot of years, sometimes forever. Vegas is really high on suicide rates. If you have anxiety or seasonal depression-stay away because it will become permanent. There’s some amazing business connections to be made tho. So if you want to network-good place to be maybe for a season.
You are so on the money! I lived there for 4 miserable years (in Summerlin which to me does not have any neighborhoods I would consider normal) and the surrounding areas in the valley are pure slums. The healthcare system & hospitals are beyond pathetic and for anyone who lives there, just hope you don’t get a medical condition and need treatment.
@@fifi5672 Meh, not every place outside of Summerlin is a slum, but I agree that most of the valley is pretty slummy. You're right about no "normal" neighborhoods. It's the people. There seems to be something "off" with almost everyone here, and those who come across as normal quickly leave. Lots of people with very strange demeanors.
NOBODY HAS DESCRIBED THIS HELLHOLE OF MISERY BETTER THAN U JUST DID
the lack of water and the constant heat and lack of trees and grass is really depressing. Seattle is depressing for being gloomy and Vegas is depressing for always being hot.
@@sayjaibao01188 I’m from Vegas and live in Seattle all I can say is Seattle has more to offer than Vegas and the summer here is better and more fun
It is currently raining in Vegas
Right, we are getting 1 inch of our rain for the year while watching this 😂😂
Born and raised here. We’re morphing into LA with all the Californians moving here buying up everything, causing home prices to increase. Don’t even get me started on the cost to rent a basic apartment. Ugh! 🤦🏾♀️
Don’t blame it on Californians cost of living going up everywhere not just in Vegas
The biggest reason to be there is to party… Why would you think it wouldn’t go up in price?
@@shiftautomotive854 Mostly because of Californians
I blame joe biden
And bringing socialism
I actually expected you to skip number 6. Making friends is hard there! People live here for a year or two and then realize it sucks and run back to their home state. I lived here only 5 years, and by the time I left, only one friend was still living in the area.
Yep I’m on year two and headed back home😆
There is only 1 friend you can rely on and that's yourself. Otherwise, watch out. But that goes for just about everywhere else also.😏
My wife wants to stay I wanted to move after the first year
IKR, we’re from LA. My cousin and aunt moved to Vegas to start over......they were back in Southern California in under 3 years.
True.. and I've felt kind of stuck here but soon I'll move back to my home state.
I live in Vegas and I agree with the construction. It's like 24/7 everyday you see cones and most takes months even years to complete. I really wanna move out of this damn city.
That's because the mayor has ties to construction companies
I agree with construction theres always something going on lol
Just come over to Hawthorne, Gardena, Torrance, lawndale or Carson for a visit in California and see if you find any places you like in those cities.
@@legendaryTMNICO them places expensive and not worth price
It's the worse when they have construction in the spaghetti bowl
This city is a love hate situation you have to have the right mindset to live here to be honest out of all the cities that I lived in this city has a lot of promise to it if your not driven and if you are prone to addictions don’t move here you will fail this city is no different then any other major city you just have to know what you want and what your looking for
i temporarily moved here for the pandemic and all of these are pretty spot on!
Grew up in vegas, loved it, and had a ton of friends. But yeah its hot!!!
The heat alone is why I haven't visited Vegas in 12 years 😂 it's not that bad of a drive from Los Angeles
Did you hear about Area 51 during a kid
Like the video said, if you don't have good self control, you shouldn't try to live here.
I've been here since 1975 and I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, or gamble.
(No, I'm not religious.)
Heck, I don't even eat junk food, meat, dairy or eggs!
My Uncle had a house in the Summerlin area on the west side of the city. I really liked it there. Nice rolling hills around there, great restaurants, golf courses, parks, beautiful houses and he had a nice pool. But too hot in the Summer for me. Great from October to April. 👍
25.6% of residents here suffer from alcohol addiction -- BUT IF YOU LOVE GREAT WEATHER...
your sass is why I watch your videos, I love it
IT’S A FREE COUNTRY AND PEOPLE CAN MOVE WHATEVER THEY WANT WE ARE NOT FROM THERE
It sounds like fun to at least visit.
It definitely can be ;)
It is

Want to grab drinks with some friends? Go Downtown/Fremont St. Want to get away from the madness? Red Rock. Wanna go to your local mall?.. Well there’s a few of those. I love it tbh.

That weed money was supposed to go to the schools.
Instead it went to the casinos
Agree 👍
I live in Henderson, specifically Anthem & I plan to move back to Orange County. Imo, Vegas lacks class. It is all about flash, fake lifestyles etc.
Oh yes lots of flashy/fake personalities, but I wouldn't say the OC is any less fake (aka plastic--and LOTS of that in both!)
"Lacks class" lol that's putting it lightly. You can be living guard gated in Summerlin and still have ghetto trash for neighbors. People here have no respect for each other and I mean NONE.
True the life of quality is ass compared to California

You are right about a lot of the residential areas looking alike.

I was born and raised plus lived in Elyria Ohio 1972 to 1997 and in 1997 I made a big moved to Las Vegas/Henderson Nevada thanks to a friend of mine from Ohio told me to move here...but I love to live here in Nevada...I met my soulmate Hubbie Sean and we have a family a girl and a boy who r teens...We struggle on living here but we make it worth r while! My family is my LIFE and without them I be living in Ohio all my life! So if u ever move to Nevada choose ur life in Nevada wisely and be careful who u want in ur life to when living in Nevada! Oh making friends and starting a family is one great idea to make...stay away from LV Strip and the drugs and alcohol and u go far!! I have lived in Nevada for almost 25 yrs and I am alive and blessed thanks to my family being together forever!!! If u want to move to Nevada then do it...u will be having an adventure til the day u leave this earth trust me! 😍
I moved to Vegas just before Covid and I love it!
The Vegas Strip is an Oasis in the Desert and it gives Vegas some charm.
Every city, town and state has its pros and cons. There is no perfect place. No paradise.
Yes there is. lol!
@@rocketmangenesis Yeah , where ??
I live in California and the weather and variety of fast food places are good enough for me.
My Aunt is from Massachusetts and met my Uncle who grew in Vegas. They will be married 29 years this year. My aunt never moved back to New England but, still misses the four seasoned weather. It is true however Vegas housing will continually rise as newcomers continue to move in from all over. I used to live in San Diego, Tampa but, being that its a very slow lifestyle and with the boring hot weather all year round, I am glad I moved back to ny home city of Boston, MA. I missed the season, my fam and friends. Yes its getting more and mire expensive up here but, I am finding that the affordable housing crisis is happening all over. Plus I couldn't imagine moving again (cost me both times on average 5k to 10k) I think I am staying put. Las Vegas seems fun but, since I don't drive, I would rather suffer the long cold winters, humid summers, be close to public transit and would rather walk than drive. I think I'm good for now.
I live in there and this depiction is very biased. California sucks more than ever and where else are you going to get all these great shopping, restaurants and shows on such a small land area?
Cost of living is inexpensive. Not visually pleasing? At night, the Strip is one of the most beautiful downtown in the USA (Ok it is subjective). You have not mentioned Summerlin: clean, nice parks, greats views, best shopping and walking district! West Henderson with the best views on the Strip.
Real estate is still inexpensive (even with 1% Prop Tax) compared to any other location that would have similar shopping, restaurants and shows within 20min drive! The weather is great 9 months per year and utilities are not very expensive. Traffic is a dream, they kept increasing the capacity of freeways in the past 8 years. South Nevada has better freeways than all surrounding States.
Heat in the summer: you get used to it (Phoenix is hotter) but at least we don't get fires nor strong earthquakes! Personally, i can't stand the humidity of South Eastern States.
Park City is 6hrs drive, Phoenix 5 hrs, San Diego 6hrs, i agree with you about driving to L.A. it is a nightmare take a plane if you need to. Locally you have nice sights at Mount Charleston and Red Rock park that you did not mention. Plane tickets are inexpensive. Best Hotels deals in the US.
You are right about education, there are only 8 great HS/Academies in the Valley. Nowadays, with dumb stay at home schooling, not sure that the national ranking means anything.
Las Vegas has the coldest, most unfriendly people in the country. I lived there for 22 years, I should know! And beneath the neon and glitter there's a very conservative populace.
The state itself of California doesn’t suck… The politics do… Nevada and Vegas in particular suck for both reasons. 🤦🏻♀️
I wish I would have saw this 13 years ago. I moved to Vegas from Chicago and although it's better than Chicago Vegas still sucks. I been wanting to move from here since I moved here. I'm looking into either Arizona or Texas
OUT OF YHOSE, PICK TEXAS
I'm planning on moving to New Orleans. I've been to Vegas about 2 times and New Orleans 4 times. New Orleans is hands down, the best city in the US
Out of those, pick Arizona. Phoenix is incredibly amazing, the surrounding suburbs like Chandler, Scottsdale, Peoria, etc are super nice.
@@SkyvatorProductions Phoenix is boring
I honestly don’t know why people would want to leave Chicago. Chicago’s fun. I can see leaving the snow though
Las Vegas : Gambling capital of the world
Macau : Hold my dice
*Entertainment
Yeah i’ve been to Macau the whole country is Casino 😂No houses only buildings and Casino Mall.
I've been here 7 yrs from Chicago. I have a love hate relationship with both places, but I can't complain about vegas. Life ain't easy but it's fair!!!
I think Vegas would be fun to live for about 6 months to 1 year then get out of there. My best friend lives there and he doesnt do much but work and go to local pub bars the locals stay far from the strip. The first 6 months he was there though he partied on the strip 3 or 4 nights a week for 6 months straight lol said it was the best time of his life.
I totally agree with you for the most part, I've been living here for awhile now and its not too bad, If you don't want to be bothered at all stay away from the strip. outside the strip everyone does keep to themselves for the most part.
That’s bad, I’m really looking for a city to mingle in.
Thought you were gonna step out of your promise to post weekly, lets gooooo
Really gonna try to do at least one a week. I'm a perfectionist so the videos take a lot of time, but I know most people won't notice if I put in 80% rather than the 100% I normally do, and y'all can get more videos! Hope you enjoyed!
I'm not American and not even interested to moving there, but this footages made me nostalgic of watching C.S.I Las Vegas 😊
Reasons to not live in Vegas
1. Low wages
2. Almost never rains
3. Car insurance is extremely expensive
4. It’s a racist city despite being very diverse
5. It’s liberal
6. The most ignorant people I have ever met (Nevada is ranked 48th in education)
7. Tons of jaywalkers
8. Food is gross (hardly any good BBQ or Mexican restaurants)
Agreed
excellent video love it, make more - soon?
Great video thanks
agree
I think this is really perfect from work from home setup like graham stephen who already done with glamor and nightlife of los angeles.
Some of these things are good reasons to move here. I don't have kids so I want low property taxes and I don't care about the schools. Living in a desert means I don't have a lawn that I have to mow. Sin City means lots of entertainment.
The reason why the schools have bad ratings for graduation is if you leave their school before you graduate you’ll be considered a dropout which brings their ratings down.
I don't think the ratings are very important to begin with. After you leave school (whether graduating or dropping out) nobody will care which school you attended. American and Canadian schools have very low standards compared to most of the world anyway and I believe that is mainly because kids think that education is "uncool".
Can you do a video discouraging people from moving to Nashville? Sorry folks we are full.
Love your videos btw , as a Portuguese I learn a lot about the USA because of your channel! Congrats
cool
After living in Vegas for over 13 years now trust me when I say that The weather sucks,traffic sucks,the scenery sucks,prices suck,schools suck,people suck,unless you’re in Vegas for vacation it overall sucks. It’s just a crappy version of the crappy parts of California.
Beware Las Vegas is a racist city towards Hispanics.
Cuidado Las Vegas es una ciudad racista hacia los Hispanos.
Love your videos - so funny & so educational
Reno NV is a much better choice to live in Nevada. It's not as hot, the people there are much friendlier, it's close to the desert but not right in the desert like Vegas. It's close to the mountains and lake Tahoe. Vegas doesn't have anything like that nearby. Lake Mead isn't a high mountain lake with lots of trees and wintertime skiing like Tahoe. Plus Reno has alot of entertainment vtoo for a small city just not all the big fancy nightclubs like Vegas. I always wondered why they never built Reno up to rival Vegas though with a similar strip and over the top nightlife or a Disney sized amusement park to throw in the mix.
Reno is basically in the middle of nowhere lol
@@gumerzambrano so is Vegas but at least Reno has a more temperate climate, friendlier people, closer to the mountains and lake and wintertime skiing. Plus less desert than Vegas.
Yes even with the snow and homeless un Reno. My choice would be up there.
Been in vegas 25 years now and you so right on everything. Let me add a couple more. Lake mead and mlk light, slot machines in every store and place, a lot of dust storms, lot of Californian people talking shit about vegas been wont move back to cali.
A lot of people that choose to move out of California are a bunch of crybabies crying over the cost of living, the income tax, the homeless problems or they’re tired of living in some sketchy area with a lot of crime.
@@legendaryTMNICO Most of the Californians I've met absolutely hate it here. I don't know why they keep coming. They move in for like a year get completely miserable and move back to Cali. They treat the locals like garbage and do nothing but ramble on about how everything needs to be just like California.
Every time he mentions the size of a metro area, I kind of roll my eyes. MSAs in the United States are defined by counties. The Las Vegas metro area consists of one county. Most of it is barren. I'm sure there is a lot of sprawl in Vegas though, kind of like Phoenix.
He said it covers nearly 8000 square miles, which is wrong. That is all of Clark County, including the empty desert areas.
@@sexygeek8996 yes, technically the whole county is in the metro area because of how they are defined by the government. but obviously that doesn't mean it's all urban/suburban and exurbs. some of that area is just part of the county. so the physical size of a metro area is pretty much completely irrelevant.
@@sexygeek8996 it’s only about 1/3 of the size of Clark County
Vegas visit can be good if your a gambler and shows. Each person see's Vegas spot differently. Years ago we drove to Vegas from LA, drove through the strip without stopping then headed back. We were board and drove there just for the fun of it.😁
I live in Baja California and NEVER been to Vegas.
Oh wow that's awesome! It looks so beautiful down there, I've always wanted to visit :) Hope you enjoy the video!
Born and Raised 🙌🏻 people have to stop moving here! 😭
I moved to Las Vegas from the North East 31 years ago and never missed the taxes, rain, cold weather, mosquitoes, suffocating humidity in the summer,, traffic, lack of public free parking, crazy drivers, never a dull moment in Las Vegas, name me another place in winter where you can ski in the morning and go swimming in your home pool in the afternoon , best restaurants, good shopping, best entertainment and on and on I think your 10 reasons not to move are already superseded.🤣
I feel this rush to Las Vegas will only last so long. Its cheaper that other places close to it in the West provably cause less people live in the general area, but this is cause its in a dessert and and population increases, cost of living will go way and even though entertainment is a big industry, it's realky the only big industry there, and tourism can usually only support populstion well up to a certain size, and with the bad education anlong with that Las Vegas may not have been good for much else in the first place, diversification will be difficult
Don't forget the trashy school system and corrupt politicians low paying jobs janky shady people I can go on and on it's a drunken mess 😂
Honestly anyone, no bs, jobs are pretty much impossible to get in Vegas? Every time I look for jobs I see “many applicants” for everything....
Pretty much yes.
Please do one on Gilbert AZ. Thanks
He did a video on Phoenix so I don't think there is a reason to include Gilbert
Literally nobody has ever heard of Gilbert
