Las Vegas offers a dynamic urban lifestyle with world-class entertainment, diverse dining, no state income tax, and year-round sunshine. From the iconic Strip to quiet suburban neighborhoods, this desert city provides opportunities for every lifestyle with easy access to outdoor recreation at Red Rock Canyon and Lake Mead.
You know Las Vegas means "the meadows" in Spanish, but did you know the famous Las Vegas Strip isn't actually IN Las Vegas? That's right—it's technically in Paradise and Winchester townships. Talk about a geographic plot twist worthy of a Vegas magic show! And while you're contemplating that mind-bender, here's another one: Las Vegas residents collectively devour over 60,000 pounds of shrimp DAILY—more than the entire rest of the country combined. That's a whole lot of cocktail sauce! Speaking of consumption, there's roughly one slot machine for every four Las Vegas residents. If slot machines were people, they'd make up 20% of the population. Imagine that voting bloc! The city is also so bright with neon lights that it's the brightest spot on Earth when viewed from outer space—NASA has the photos to prove it. And here's the kicker: it would take you 288 years to spend just one night in every hotel room in Las Vegas. So if you're planning to see them all, you might want to start packing now!
