What is the avg rent around Las Vegas?

[wonderwes]

My friend and I were debating this. To live in the Las Vegas areas what does rent usually run around (decent 1/2 bd apt)? I assume many people live in the suburbs and just commute over to the poker rooms on the strip. It seems like Henderson, NV is a sweet area to live in. Would you say cost of living is similar to other US cities, or is everything seem higher compared to all the higher prices for basic items like in California. Just curious, any info is appreciated.
