Question, so do you have to live in NV for a full year in order for the no state income 🤔 tax to take effect? How does that work? I'm looking to move there in 2024. So would I not get the full benefit of No state income taxe until 2025?

Ruby, I'm a part time Vegas resident. I bought a house here with intention to rent it out. In the first 2 weeks after taking over the house, I went shopping and get the house ready for rent. While doing that around the neighborhood, I felt in love with it and decided to keep it to myself so I could occasionally escape the life in Orange County in California. It has been 2 years and I still love it.

The one thing people ALWAYS forget to mention is the lack of high level medical care. They have a trauma center, yes, but very limited cardiac and neurological care, so you’ll be transported out of state for those. And although you may like the weather, the heat is pretty intense during the long summers.

We’ve lived here 30 years. The medical and doctors here are not good nor do they stay longer than several months before they depart. Californians have not helped things here, being a former CA person it’s not a compliment. Being retired we do look at all costs, new people lack of friendliness, and poor medical care….. currently the Las Vegas/Henderson NV area totally sucks.

When we made the decision to leave Vermont, mainly because the taxes were so overwhelming we also decided that Las Vegas could work for us, but after doing a lot of research we decided Las Vegas was to pricey and to congested, so we ended moving to Pahrump, Nevada which is 45 minutes west of Las Vegas. This town has everything you need, the housing market is 50% lower then the Las Vegas market. We ended up buying 20 acres of property that already had a well and septic system installed. We had a modest 2 bedroom , 2 bath house built for under $100,000 and we carry no mortgage on it. The property taxes are 0.5%. Me and my wife are retired from the military and now are independent computer system analyst for a defense contractor from Las Vegas. We work from home, pretty much the same jobs we did in the military but making 4 times the money.....

Great video Ruby! FYI - Terribles used to be called Terrible Herbst. Owned by Edward R. Herbst, who was credited with becoming "the P.T. Barnum of gasoline" by engaging in unusual marketing strategies, undercutting the competition with low prices, and pioneering the convenience store model. According to his son, Jerry, each time the elder Herbst would open a new gas station, competitors would bemoan the move: "Here comes that terrible Herbst", inspiring the chain's nickname.

Hello, I left Las Vegas after almost 20 years of living there. I loved it there and I moved back 18 months ago to Southern California where I lived for 30 yrs before I retired. There is nothing bad to say about Vegas. Unless we live in the area that is in the North part. I left and I missed it, but I have reasons that I had to let it go. I still drive back but I sold all of my properties and left after my son died by suicide, there is nothing that can keep me there. I owned many mansions there and I was really happy there until that untimely event. I am back living closer to relatives here. I had 20 great years! I get comps because I am and have been the seven stars level, I paid nothing for 40 yrs + and I got the best penthouse they offer, but the casinos do not give you things for free, you earned the comps and cruises etc. Which means you play a lot, they comp you a lot. Losing or winning is just the games and timing. Good luck to you. I now live about 6 minutes from the nearest casino and Harrah's is about 25 minutes away. I don't gamble here in the Indian tribe casinos, they never paid much. You are young, you will love it in Vegas. Your KZfaq channel will do very well because you have access to all the largest and nicest casinos. We used to play off the strips and we won every night. We hit the floors after all the tourists left. We won and went home. Even though we have the room always comped. That is the only way you control your gambling. You cannot play like NG, the Big Jackpot etc. You come back later, you still can play every day for 6-8 hours but you don't bet $250.00 a spin for that long. We played at Red Rocks and Palms and we had fun there. Good luck! Glad you like Vegas, I did!!!

He tells me he also lives a ways outside Seattle, so maybe he doesn't deal with the crime, garbage, and homelessness too much. Of course (like we both said), it exists here too.

It was once very easy to live there. Today you have high crime, homeless people everywhere. The cost of renting or buying is triple from 3, years ago. Unfortunately it’s not worth it anymore, there’s no value like it once had. The sunny days are great but again it’s a desert. The cost of living, utilities, groceries, will skyrocket again so I recommend a coast line where farms are plenty. You have no idea what hardships are near especially in that city.

No doubt Ruby has at least temporarily settled down in Summerlin, one of the best regions in the entire Vegas Valley, if not the outright single best. A very clean and tidy series of neighborhoods, with some being multi-million dollar hoods. I use plural because Summerlin is ginormous and comprises of many, many smaller neighborhoods. Congrats on your new digs and let us know when you finally end up buying.

So much snow that you have to shovel...your ROOF. Cold that is so severe, that exposed skin will get frost bite in about 30 seconds. The ground is frozen so hard that it resembles cement. Nah, they'll enjoy the summer heat. Trust me. Even on Vegas' hottest days, you can still go outside and enjoy the evening at night. Winters in Milwaukee? You can't even go outside and enjoy yourself when there isn't a cloud in the sky and the sun is shining.

I have always enjoyed watching you because not only are you honest, you talk about things that not everyone talks about. I would expect "living in LV" videos to almost be more tourist-oriented, like what you'll see for a brief trip, highlighting a lot of things people already know - it's less expensive off strip, it's hot in the summer, gas prices are high. Like and subscribe! You go further and talk about things that people actually want to know about, things they will understand with context from where they themselves live - speed traps! State taxes! Insurance! It's like talking to a friend after they moved out there, an honest and up-front chat where you learn something. I've always loved how peaceful that desert makes me feel and wondered what it would be like to just live out there, and this video was super interesting and helpful! Wish you guys continued and growing success, I'll be watching your videos with envy when those first cold fronts come in here in Madison. Hope to catch you guys for a quick hello next time we come out!

Just moved here last year from Chicago myself. Everything you said about how you feel about LV and the strip is the same for me. I still love it but it’s different. I definitely love downtown more than the strip but the parking sucks, I just get someone to drop me off there because I live close. But once you have been to every part of the valley as I have (I drive for a living so I have) you see that there are SO many wonderful neighborhoods that aren’t Summerlin. There is a neighborhood near the arts district that is all redone art deco that is suuuper cute. The eastern side all the way up the mountain east of Hollywood Blvd is really nice and not cookie cutter homes. I know you said you like the heat, having it be 115 for weeks gets a little rough though. 😂

Nice video. Your move sounds like most people who relocate to Vegas as they immediately look to relocating in the suburbs. I think the challenge is most realtors are also locals and they just don't know the actual city of Las Vegas so they start recommending the suburbs or the city of Henderson. Unlike most cities where you move out to the suburbs for land...today's builders are putting homes on postage stamp lots and you are on top of your neighbors in the suburbs so you may want to think about moving back into the city because Las Vegas residents knew how to live in the 60's & 70's.. Las Vegas has the "Vintage Vegas" neighborhoods where the lots are all 1/3 acre plus, mature landscape (you would never believe you are in a desert), custom homes and are only minutes from the Strip, Downtown and airport. My favorite neighborhoods are Scotch 80's, Rancho Bel Air, Rancho Circle, Alta area and McNeil Estates.

My sister lives in LV and we have visited several times, staying with her family for a week outside of Vegas, and staying on the strip and downtown at the casinos as a true vacation. I really enjoyed your video and frank impressions of the actual living conditions around the area. As a reference, living in VA, we have a state income tax, a 6% sales tax, a tax on food at the grocery store, and a state and city or county tax on food in restaurants. We are about 2 hours south of Washington, DC, and the prices of houses, of all goods and services, (in the area around DC, called Northern VA), and the cost of owning a car, and getting around, etc. is atrocious. Personally, I would be very happy to live in the suburbs of LV and enjoy the restaurants, casinos, and touristy things that the big city has to offer. I really envy that you guys get to enjoy all of that, partially subsidized by your KZfaq channel. Will keep watching.

The best advice I could give you after reading your post is don't do it but if you feel you might want to do it spend a month there. Vegas is one of those cities where it does not cost any more money to live in a one bedroom apartment with the kitchen for a month than it would if you were to rent it out right. Places to recommend our budget suites. They have a kitchen and a bedroom and what more do you need. The entire month my cost you $1500 at most. I left Virginia for the same reasons you're positing here and moved to Las Vegas and regretted it. Vegas is a strange place in that of all the cities in the United States is has the greatest old Laura based on the "shiny object" phenomenon. Casinos bells lights whistles, excitement excitement excitement. And then you get there and you realize that the casinos are good for a few days, fun for a few weeks maybe and then you never go again. This is it just me saying it. It's everyone that lives here. I came from a beautiful part of the state of Virginia near the University of Virginia green mountains hillsides farms vineyards. You're not going to get any of that out here. Is not a single blade of grass that grows anywhere for 400 miles. The desert is rocks and dirt. You may find the architecture depressing. It's Soviet era style housing. One house next to each other separated by about 3 feet and I'm not kidding, the exact same house over and over and over again for miles to see. There's no lakes, believe me don't count Lake Mead is just a bowl surrounded by rocks with water diverted from the Colorado River. There are no mountains with trees on then they're just bare boulders and rocks again no single thing can grow on them. I won't get into the summer heat because you probably have already read about it but the question is have you lived in it. Can you live in 110° plus four 120 days in a row. It's a good question really. One day anybody can put up with it two days three days but over time it can become Chinese torture. You'll never leave the house. You won't be able to medically leave the house as these temperatures can kill you if you even walk more than a mile. Even in an emergency you better hope that if your car breaks down someone comes by to get you fast if you're on a deserted road because you could die. Happens here all the time. Something which is a touchy subject but has to be considered is the demographics. 90% of all people moving to Las Vegas are from the worst parts of California and untold numbers from Tonga and other Pacific Island countries. They don't really like white people nor do they mix. There's a heavy heavy Hispanic population, greater than 50% absolutely. You might find the fact that this is really not "an American city" antithetical to what you might presume. I'm a physician and I can speak to this subject in depth and width clarity which is to say that 90% of all nurses in the hospital systems in Las Vegas are from the Philippines. They're really not that competent. I'll have to leave it at that. The doctors all have have five syllable last names. They're from the Congo, Nigeria, Syria, India… You will never find a doctor named McCarthy let's say. The healthcare system here is absolutely abysmal. It is ranked 49th in the United States for both quality of doctors and hospitals and this is not a place you want to get real sick in. I'm not sure how old you are but if you are over the age of 65 I would take this into consideration very seriously. The bells and whistles and shiny objects that I was referring to is a temporary and transient excitement one gets when seeing people moving about on the strip. Looks fun doesn't it? Remember that's Vegas's allusion. You walk around the strip a few times and you get tired of it as I've mentioned but also keep in mind that the demographics of the Las Vegas strip have changed dramatically.. A lot of shootings and robbing is now which was not the case years ago you need to be very careful. These are things to be aware of and also things you might miss about being in a beautiful part of the country with all of its warts and taxes and so on. Spend a month here. You'll thank me later

Also your pros and cons were 100% legit. My biggest plus to moving out here is that, even though Nevada can be a bit pricey, I still have been able to financially 'catch up' and even get slightly ahead. My wife and I have stared to be able to do things that we could never have done in California, due to not being able to afford it. My only big regret is that we didn't move out here 10 years sooner.

The locals I met there were all extremely nice people and they all definitely did not go to the strip 🤣. The only problem I ran into was that it definitely leans more into being a tourist city, being a local I felt a lot of things were WAY overpriced because they’re pricing things as an experience as well as a product.

Why move out if you liked it? I believe that maybe once it was ok do to sunny days but paying for groceries and the never ending higher rents every year it’s just not valuable anymore. The city is overcrowded and seriously no real routes to travel from place to place without being delayed or blocked in. It’s not what it used to be and once the incoming collapse happens you might not want to be there.

true that. also, the schools/universities have casino owners on their boards who pay hefty sums so that they can keep the education levels subtly low, else who else will work in their hotels/resorts/casinos if the majority attains higher education. Also, just my experience, I was there in 2016 and March last year, as an example of the attitude of the people there, when I asked for the parking lot, the security folks told me that the only way was thru the casinos. Another example, we were purchasing weed and the girl at the counter said we could take it to Arkansas on the flight just so she could sell us $5 worth of gummies more. I mean, had it been some poor innocent folks who’d have believed her, they’d have easily fallen for her words as she was really nice and soft spoken, the result might well have been them serving jail time for carrying weed. Stayed there for 3 days and found few more examples like these. Now, imagine having a family there and your kids growing up in that environment, it’d work in the shorter run, but ultimately, people will see thru such motives. So, choose wisely, Vegas is just to spend some time and then come back home. 😊
