The Most Affluent Neighborhoods in Las Vegas
The Las Vegas Review Journal published a report on the
wealthiest neighborhoods in Las Vegas. No
surprises here. The Northwest (west of the 95 Freeway) ranked Number
One.
Summerlin was close behind as were two areas of the
Southwest near the Spanish Trail Country Club.
In the Southeast part of the Las
Vegas Valley, Henderson West, which includes Anthem,
Sun City Anthem, and
Seven Hills, along with some sections of
Green Valley
are also affluent neighborhoods
Home prices in Las Vegas
Las Vegas Valley home prices
have fallen off a cliff -- which, of course, means it is
a great time for buyers. Foreclosures continue to be a
significant part of home sales. Most of the
resales were foreclosed properties.
In the Spring of 2010 some home
prices began to stabilize--especially in desirable
neighborhoods. Condo prices are
astonishingly low because there are so many
foreclosures. The peak average price was reached in June
2006. Now it is almost "name your own price"
because condos are about 50% below the peak.
