Appts in Las Vegas
Any Las Vegans have advice on what general area's to get an apartment? Assume I can afford anything $1,100 and less. Or even areas to stay away from would be of help, specific appt buildings would be even better! Thanks.

It's a nice, safe area. I paid about $700 per month for a one bedroom. I would avoid any apartments near downtown, or Maryland parkway. It's relatively fast to get from almost anywhere in the Vegas valley to the strip. 20 minutes tops. This isn't a city like LA where your location could mean you're driving an hour to get somewhere.

Jeff [/ QUOTE ] Yeah I know, party the reason I am probably moving there. I am taking a pay raise, playing 25% less on rent and living withing 15 minutes of some of the juciest middle limit holdem games in the world. I don't see how I can't do this.

Re: Appts in Las Vegas
The ONLY reason I haven't moved there yet is I feel like I'd miss my friends and family alot. That's a big move for me - someone who doesn't usually take life risks like that off the felt. I'd love to give it a two month trial to see if I like it, but unfortunately you can't hit the pause button on life. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
Also, I'd be afraid I'd have trouble making friends there and would spend ALL of my free time in casinos because of it. Not necessarily a bad thing but... Jeff

Jeff [/ QUOTE ] this is my only reason too. but I'm moving there anyways. I can always come back after a year or two if its not really for me.

You'll have no problems finding a place for $1,100 as long as you don't have ridiculous expectations. I pay less than $900 for an 1,100+ square foot two-bedroom apartment with a little balcony and easy access to casinos, shopping, libraries and all that good stuff. You want to avoid most areas with things like "North" in their name and suspiciously low-priced stuff right near the strip. SpaceAce
