Default Re: What is the avg rent around Las Vegas?

I recently moved to Vegas in June. I am renting a 3 BD home in Summerlin (nice suburb) for $1195/mo. Summerlin is 20 minutes west of the strip.

The one thing that I found cost a hell of a lot more than I was used to was auto insurance. The insurance pool in Las Vegas is VERY dirty. My rep told me that more than 60% of the drivers have at least one accident.

I have a Ford Mustang. I have been driving for 28 years with no tickets and no accidents. It cost me $400 a year in Wisconsin to insure. It cost me $700 a year in Minnesota to insure. It now costs me $2200 a year in Vegas to insure. That is VERY ugly.

You will obviously find higher electric and water costs out here.

If you have any other questions concerning relative costs, etc., let me know.

Will
