I lived in Las Vegas for 7 Years! From 2012 to 2019 and the high turnover rate, unemployment, job layoffs etc. hurt the locals. The locals can barley afford to go on the strip for leisure and fun. Clark county does not invest in the locals or the schools, its really sad. Off the strip life living in Las Vegas is really like a small town where everyone knows everyone. Tons of single moms who were ex cocktail waitresses, bottle girls or show performers. Tons of Gambling addicts, ex street walker lizard lot workers, drug addicts, alcoholics etc. you name it. Vegas is not for the weak its a tough city and I enjoyed living in Las Vegas. It has now embarked on a complete corporate takeover where it is not that affordable for the average citizen. I remember back in the 90s and early 2000's, Clubs were free, drinks were free, 2 for 1 buffets. Buffets for 10 bucks, drinks for 2 bucks. clubs were 20 bucks max. Vegas used to be super fun, but around 2015ish it really started to get corporate and bouge. Vegas will be for the rich elites soon. I remember when you could park for free in any parking garage and just explore the strip, it was super fun. Now you have to pay extra resort fees, pay for parking at the casinos when it was once free, but hey life changes and nothing ever stays the same. I get it, sports, gambling, rigging games etc. All about money over people. Profits over people.

It is funny to hear some people advocate for low or no taxes at all, but afterwards state that the lack of Government support in some areas (water or energy supply, child care, school, transport, etc...) is limiting the growth capacity of the city. To be clear: I am not saying that high taxes equals high quality public services! It does not work this way. The main thing is: taxes have to increase as the city expands, and more services are demanded by that increase. Hence, with time, Las Vegas - and its cities - will have to increase taxes.

The Brightline high-speed rail project is said to be creating 10,000 jobs, so that’s a big boost. Also, the lithium mining boom for electric vehicle & battery needs is huge for Nevada as a whole. ‘the new oil’, and Nevada some of the largest fields of it on the planet. Nevada’s newfound status as the second presidential primary state on the Democrats’ calendar in 2028 should be an interesting wrinkle, too. (It’ll be South Carolina-Nevada instead of Iowa-New Hampshire). I find that a compelling draw, esp since that Brightline rail is targeting a 2028 completion - just in time for the Olympics in Los Angeles. There’s planned to be World Cup matches in Los Angeles or even in Las Vegas itself (if the shaky LA stadium plan fails) in 2026, too. Very interesting time to be in the state.

Greetings from Mentor OH , my buddy from willoughby moved there a few years ago and he loves it I’ve only been once It was a good time tho

[@keithlangfordjr.689]

That's the move!! Moved from NE Ohio 7 years ago to California and haven't looked back 😎. Love being so close to Las Vegas as it's only an hour flight for me.

[@bobdaluga418]

I lived in Vegas from 1985 till 2000. I have not been back since I left in 2000.

Following some tips from my brother turned into a decent win last month. Ever had a win that felt extra sweet because it came from a tip

A great place to visit, but I couldn't see myself buying a home there. It's in the desert. I get it that they're great with water conservation. But it's in the desert!

Inflation is at the highest it's ever been, credit card debt is at it's highest in history and yet Americans still have "disposable" income to spend. Something's not adding up here

[@Cyrus992]

Top 10%? Credit cards?

[@poochyenarulez]

you literally explained it yourself. Inflation is up, so, naturally, debt will be up. 10% higher inflation with 10% higher debt cancels each other out.

[@ClownWorldHONKHONK-yj5sn]

As long as credit is expanded, extended and increased no problems. Once credit stops it’s game over!

[@blongshanks77]

Inflation doesn’t have such a negative effect on people with higher than average incomes. It’s a well known fact that high inflation really only affects the poor and middle class. The other thing is high inflation leads to higher asset values, thus opening up more disposable income for those who own assets.

[@poochyenarulez]

@@blongshanks77 High inflation helps low income people with debt. The debt is worth less the higher inflation rises.

[@brandon6335]

Just gonna say that Las Vegas was always relevant due to the year round availability of water for trains back in the day.

[@Frenchieeeee]

too bad tech companies chose Texas over Nevada. Weather wise, outdoor activities and entertainment Nevada > Texas 100%.

😂 im from nyc i live in vegas for 24 yrs !! Inly visited the strip when i got here in 2000 😂 forget about the strip 😂😂

[@hattorihongzo]

Nevada is the 6th fastest growing state economy - growing pains expected. I've invested in Vegas, so I see the rise in business & real estate as a good thing. Not overly concerned about crime and water yet. For Vegas, tourists still rule the revenue streams and they'll go elsewhere if they believe it's unsafe to visit. City officials know this. As for water, there's just too much money on the line. Vegas stakeholders got The Money and The Power - they'll find a workable solution.

[@Troy-McClure81]

😢I miss the mob days of Vegas , I'm a fourth generation local and crime was low homeless was kept mostly downtown and food and drinks were cheap if not free.Comps were plenty people were friendly and Vegas had a heart .Now its just another Corporate City full of crime graffiti and greed.

[@deltakid0]

Graffiti, damned Graffiti, it's the misery and ruin of modern society, that's not art that's evilness

Finch at 4rabet events is like a stamp of excellence always a sign that things are gonna be awesome

[@MrRicklynch57]

I usually like the CNBC specials, but this one was heavily financed by the Las Vegas Convention and Tourism Bureau. The statistics for the sporting venues are the same statistics that Steve Hill has been touting for years. It fails to mention that the Raiders still owe over a billion dollars back to the government and the revenue the Raiders and the Super Bowl generate are based on a 10 year projected tourism and convention boost the city will receive from having their city spotlight on a worldwide broadcast. As for F1 there was no mention that the event attracted fewer spectators than expected and they had to discount ticket prices, they also didn't mention tourism dropped the months leading up to the event while construction on the strip was going on and popular features like the Bellagio Fountains were not accessible. They also didn't mention the lawsuit from several businesses losing money from F1 or the lawsuit from teachers in regards to Nevada paying for a baseball park. These numbers are very skewed in favor of Steve Hill and his agenda and do not tell the reality.

LV will do just fine. They closed down half the city to host the F1 GP last year.

[@captaincc3870]

las vegas is literally the perfect place to host the superbowl
