My Grandmother was one of the sales team for Paradise Palms: that’s her in the video with the red hair ‘playing ‘ the realtor. My Mom is the model/buyer in this movie . My Mom is still alive and still lives in Las Vegas but not in Paradise Palms. We had 2 homes on Ottawa Drive. One of the homes is in this video . My grandparents also owned a home. My Dad ( also still alive and living with me) says he paid 32,000k for that first home . Dad was the largest pool builder in Nevada for many years and we had a beautiful pool in both backyards. Sonny Liston lived ( and died ) on our street. The Sahara Hotel owned the home just across the street and Buddy Hackett and other famous comedians of the day stayed in that home. In the video they call The golf course the Stardust course but I always remember it being called the Sahara Nevada golf course . The elementary school; Ruby S Thomas was recently torn down. The junior high: William Orr was a Short walk from our house. Such an idyllic place to grow up. Finding this video has been so wonderful for our whole Family . Thank you for posting it.

I thought I recognized Ottawa Dr. I came very close to buying 1730 Chippewa back in 2011 - it's the same model as the one in the tour (I could tell from the way the kitchen juts out of the front but it's not this house because the car port is on the other side). Amusingly, I passed on it because it only appraised at $115K, and the owner wanted something like $135k. (Zillow value is $471k today!) That is very cool that your family is in this video!

Your comment is one of the coolest things I've ever read in a KZbin comment section. Thank you for enlightening us. We're about the same age and I join you in fondly recalling about coming of age in that post-war era. It's easy to make fun of a lot of the things in this film but, on the whole, America was a better place back then.

I owned one of those houses in the 1980's. The Stardust no longer owned the golf course by that time though. But I soon learned living that close to a golf course has it's down side. We'd occasionally get errant golf balls ricocheting off the patio furniture. And one time I lost one of my sliding glass doors due to a direct hit. And the commenters below are right about how hot a sliding board can get in the Vegas sun. We used to keep an oven mitt next to our metal garbage cans because you could literally burn your hand trying to pick the lid up on a summer afternoon. These days I prefer the milder climate along the beach in L.A.

I'm sold. Now I just need to rev up my time machine to go back to 1962 to buy one of those units. 😀 This film reminds me of the 1961 Bob Hope movie, Bachelor In Paradise. Bob plays a book author who moves into such a brand new community (in california) called Paradise Village to collect research material for his new book about wives living in suburbia. The interior, furnishings, decorations and styles of the real life houses in this film very much resembles the interiors of the fake movie set houses in the Bob Hope movie.

The home had absolutely not one shred of insulation. You could hear everything that went on in the neighborhood and the heater was always on if it was cold.

Many confuse the prices then with today's earned incomes. Those $30,000 homes and even the $20-25,000 homes were beyond the reach of many with their earned incomes. People were not making in today's $ amounts, even though they were making by regulations and by the market value of their skill levels. The $ valuation was different then today's and people's income were in accordance to that.

Not that much has changed in the process when you go purchase a new build in a master planned community in 2024. We just did this process for North River Ranch in Parrish Florida, near Tampa and Sarasota. It’s incredible that we still live in a country that is growing with tons of new communities still being built. God Bless America 🇺🇸 and the beautiful new homes that are being built are really gorgeous. The community we selected will have over 9,000 new homes with 4 different builders, and multiple phases. Nice mix of young families and retirees coming from up north and west. Homes start in the $400,000’s.

All there, and in the last decade or so, many of the rundown homes have been beautifully rehabbed, but unfortunately the surrounding area is pretty rough. The nearby Boulevard Mall you see mentioned in other comments literally has no anchor stores left.
