"Home Town America"

This street is great. Enclosed in a gated community, it has a wonderful home town America appeal to it. The development by Lamplight homes, has every home looking and feeling different. The landscaping is superb, and the streets are all lit by antique looking lamplight.

The neighborhood also has a down to earth feel. Large trees and grass dominate the smaller front yards. Neighbors can routinely be seen walking along the somewhat narrow streets. No traffic concerns here. Being a smaller home neighborhood sometimes you can hear the neighborhood dogs, but only on occasion.

This street has good access to major streets and the freeway is only two miles away. I lived on this street for 4 years before moving, and I loved it the whole time. The only gripe is the limited parking which inhibits to many visitors. But who says that is a bad thing?! Overall a wonderful street to live on and raise a family.

"The most beautiful street in all of Las Vegas"

Town Center Drive located on the west side of Las Vegas in the Summerlin community is by far the most beautiful street in Las Vegas. Alternating green ash trees with red fruitless plum trees give this street a vibrant beauty that is rarely seen in Las Vegas. Although a major street, the traffic is hardly noticeable.
Along its path you are able to find countless housing developments, shops and stores, places to eat, and just a bit west you will come across Red Rock Station Casino. The gentle curves and roundabouts along this road break up the monotony and grid like pattern that you find across most of Vegas. Countless parks and paseos can be found just off of Town Center, and along its northern route lies a library and the Las Vegas ballet school and theater.
All in all Town Center is a major road that serves all of the Summerlin community. And if you get a chance, check it out in the spring as all the trees begin to leaf again, its a beautiful sight!!

"Almost all commercial and light industrial"

South Rainbow Blvd in Las Vegas is a major thorough-fare. It contains every business imaginable. Huge strip malls, vast shopping mall areas and even a police station (just off a side street) line this street. Definitely a good artery for traveling across the valley. The southern section offers little in the way of housing, but definitely provides access to countless developments.
The traffic is truly horrendous however as there are numerous lane shifts, reductions and expansions along its route. It does have access to a brand new Technology high school that they just put in. If you live in the South end of the valley, you will get used to using this road to move around, or do your shopping!

"Not so great a street"

East Robindale in Las Vegas is a very residential street. The only problem is that there are only house on one side of the street, and its a very large street. As a result people going flying down the street like they're drag racing which makes for a very noisy unpleasant ambiance. Plus the other side of the street has only the backs or sides of houses, which makes it a very dull boring grey dreary sight. There are really no amenities in close proximity to this street which also makes it a negative. The utilities and services are all there which helps a little. But not much. Overall an unpleasant street to live on.

"My perfect street!!"

I live on this street so of course I'm biased. But this is such a wonderful place to live. It has wonderful shops, and restaurants all within a five minute walk across the street. Great schools all within a mile or two. Easy freeway access, although in the mornings it can become a little backed up. The street is tucked away from the main road just enough that you never hear hardly any cars. The closest hospital is about 8 miles away, but still easily accessible. Street contains all single family homes with a very friendly neighborhood atmosphere. I truly do love calling this street my home. Street is always quite, and provides a great place to raise kids!! Of course all of the streets near and surrounding mine are a fantastic place! My only complaint is the heat of the summer in Vegas. But once you get around that its no problem. Anyways, I still think my street is one of the best places to live, and I love calling it home!!

"Like a huge freeway, but not quite!!"

The southern route out to Lake Mead in Las Vegas is a perfect entry way to such a beautiful Vegas attraction. Starting at the I-15 to the west, it stretches all the way towards the 215 along the southern beltway of the Las Vegas valley. There you can find anything and everything imaginable for your personal, family, or entertaining needs. The new M resort and casino is situated right as you exit the I-15 freeway. As you travel east from there, its an expansive 8 lane road that cuts across the valley floor until it to runs into the 215 freeway. Along the way you come across hospitals, airports (Henderson executive airport) food, banks, and all other amenities needed. A higher speed limit than a traditional street (approx 60mph) makes for fast travel only interrupted by the occasional stoplight. No houses or developments directly back up to this road, as I get the feeling they will one day turn it into an auxiliary freeway. If you need anything, you can travel along this road and find it!!

"Access to the Silverado Ranch area"

Silverado Ranch Blvd. is an expansive street that connects the west edge of Henderson to the I-15 freeway. Along its path are multiple shopping centers, Schools, and housing developments. The road itself has really developed in the past few years with the addition of South Point Hotel and Casino on the West end. Overall its a major thorough-fare which provides access for residents of the area to get around. Traffic can be somewhat tedious during rush hour, but is easily overlooked with access to such shopping places as Target, Wal-Mart grocery stores, tons and tons of restaurants and fast food places, and many other services. A few parks along its route and a newly built bike path are making this street a great street to live near.

"Southern Highlands gateway to the world!"

Southern Highlands Parkway is basically the very south end of Decatur Blvd. It is the entrance to Southern Highlands community. Along this street you can find supermarkets, video stores, coffee shops, great eating and dining, a gym, banks, and almost every other service you can need in a community. Like most areas it tends to wind down by about 12am but some places, including the Smiths supermarket are open 24 hours. This road winds down to connect with the I-15 and Las Vegas Blvd. Housing dominates its run, but scattered along are some light commercial, and a few watering holes. Its beautifully landscaped and offers a wonderful Sunday morning drive. I live right around there and this is definitely the main access to the multiple paseos, parks and other community conveniences. In the spring all the trees bloom and its a wonderful walking experience. The street is a little busy in the mornings and evenings, but well worth it. A great street to live next too!

"Great entertainment area"

Green Valley Parkway stretches from the south end of the Las Vegas valley and extends north for about 6 miles. All along you can find a variety of areas, but the most interesting and by far the most entertaining happens to exist right off of the 215 freeway and Green Valley Ranch exit to the south. There you will find Green Valley Ranch Casino along with an outdoor mall/food street called the district. Great shopping dining and entertainment can be found there year round. Should you be visiting Vegas, this is one great location to stay at or near!

"Fastest Growing little street in Vegas"

Blue Diamond, what a transformation you have undergone these past few years. It used to be "the" two lane road out to Pahrump, NV (a neighboring city of Las Vegas.) Now it has exploded into a 8 lane super street with thousands of houses, services and shops popping up every day. No more waiting for the trains either. The NDOT has built a huge crossover bridge at the once agonizing train tracks. Still anchored by the Silverton Hotel and Casino on the east beginnings of the road, it is now filled in with large expanses of shops, quick eats, and even a nursery. If you plan on moving to Vegas, this end of town is a must see. The newly redefined Blue Diamond Rd. only adds to the ease and accessibility of this area. And yet as you travel further west it still retains its rustic rural feel as it once again narrows down to two lanes as you leave town. Im still amazed at the change!!
