I'm just moving to Henderson, which is about 15 miles as the crow flies, but it's like being in another world. I'll be in the old part of town (fondly referred to as Hooterville) where I can look out and see the valley WAY far below...under the smog.
But I will like it much better! Away from traffic, crime and crowds. Except for their street fairs.
I'm familiar with Henderson. Good choice!
If you stay in Vegas you risk becoming the storyline for an episode of CSI. Which is why I don't go out at night here in DC.
