You exaggerate a little. Today I just drove from Summerlin (Charleston/215) to Lake Las Vegas in 35 minutes with cruise control set at 70mph. About the same coming back. I would say closer to a hour round trip. Not one way.
I agree with construction. The city flower is the orange cone.

here in San Francisco during the summer it’s hardly get hot the temperature will get around 60 to 70 degree
I’m born and raised Vegas 52 years Vegas Strong 💪🏽 I can tell you it’s parenting, my Mom and Dad NEVER exposed us kids to the adult life. We went out to eat and planning was everything but always family time.

Used to be affordable. Now the rents are ridiculous. This happend all in a matter of a few years. Crazy
If you voted DEMOCRAT, you have only yourself to blame.
thank you for your honesty .... i first visited vegas in 1977 ... it was quite a nice (and VERY AFFORDABLE!) town back then... in fact southwest airlines sold a book of 10 flight coupons to vegas for $290.00! and I lived in the Los Angeles area (20 minutes from LAX) so it was very easy to hop on a plane (NO FRISKING! NO METAL DETECTORS!) and NICE hotels were a BARGAIN! .... and this was a time when you bought your (cheap) tickets for a show and there were doormen that escorted you to your seat so it was very easy to tip the guy $10 bucks (that would be at least $30 today) and he'd put you up front! ... You could also walk across (carefully) the stip (NO BARRIERS!) ... Man ... Las Vegas USED to be GREAT!
Like I tell idots that complain about vegas, leave find your happy place, I don't like Chicago so here I am. In my happy place, las vegas.
I loved living in Chicago for 60 years, great place to live and work. Las Vegas is a great place to party and be retired.
if you cant control temptation then you will end up broke, homeless or in jail.
True...but you don't have to fall vic to temptation to lose in Vegas..the whole city is setup for you to fail... I lived there for 20 yrs that place is a hell hole and so glad we escaped ✈️✌🏼💯
1) I love the heat! 2) my kids are grown 3) no pets they died 4) sorry no cash 5) extremely disciplined 6) I don’t mind driving 7) everywhere is under construction 8) I have enough friends 9) gamble in the morning the drunks are passed out 10) there’s deals if you look 11) I don’t drink and I don’t drive at night 12) you get crime in any big city 13) I’m retired 14) high cost of living? 😮 forget it no deal I’m not moving 😅😅😅
These videos crack me up. They discourage moving to Vegas, but they make tons of Vegas content for money on RUclips. And they never move 🤣
I like going to Las Vegas in my rental car seeing the Strip from a Distance!😂
She’s obviously NOT the ambassador of the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce!!! 😮
I lived in AZ and would go to Vegas. I do agree with your opinions. Vegas life is only for SOME people.
one of the 15 thing would be the high cost of rent and mortgage.
Ms. Moreno...thank you for taking the time to be so personable to share information for people thinking about moving to the Las Vegas area. Over the years I have gone through Las Vegas, once as I was using my motorcycle in the course of taking a cross country trip , at that time from California. Also many years later just driving there for a short visit to the city to enjoy the attractions with my wife. The points you bring up are very well thoughout and presented and should really help people considering a permanent move to really consider the important considerations you have shared. Again thank you for being so helpful and I hope people will take the time to plan accordingly with your points in mind!
😅...don't leave out: #16. Low school test scores. CCSD is not known for educating students for colleges and/or universities. High schools graduated students just so they could work minimum wage jobs in the casinos; and, #17. Comparatively Low Wages - that's why native Las Vegans can't compete in the housing market with out of state buyers who pay cash or have huge down payments. Current home prices mean average monthly payments are ranging from $2400-$3000 per month. Home prices have more than doubled since 2020 while local wages have not. It is not uncommon for an employer to offer minimum wage (+/-) plus Tips as a beginning salary! Tips (from the public) are built into the salary structure for many, many jobs. There are some regular skill wage jobs that -still- only offer $12-$15 per hour to start. In some fields, it is very, very rare to earn $20+ per hour.
Hello :)- Great video and very informational as a resident of VEGA$ for over 13 years which is a nice place to visit but not the best place to live since the Pandemic. Along with everyone that decided to move to Las Vegas from California and NOW the cost of living is now ranked up there with California so anyone looking to save a ton of money can now dismiss that idea!!! Kudos :)-
Resort fees (at hotels) keep me from going to Las Vegas.
4 queens and Apache (Binions) don’t have resort fees. There are a few others but those are the main ones that I know of. They’re downtown but I kind of like downtown more these days. More walkable and generally cheaper amenities.
Resort fees are gravy money
Las Vegas has the least expensive and best resort hotels in America. Even with the resort fees, hotel rooms in Las Vegas are a massive bargain compared to anywhere else. If the hotel room prices are to much for you to handle, stay home.
@@jerryoconnor9227 "If the hotel room prices are too [ed. - "too" not "to"] much for you to handle, stay home." She / He wasn't complaining about the room prices; if so your "stay home" suggestion would be valid. It was / is the Resort Fees which are totally bogus AND creeping higher than inflation which is a common consensus -- no matter how much of a bargain your classy hotel's room charge might be.
Great vid. Lots of reasonable advice. Thank you.
Everything you said was right on the money
Excellent description of Vegas
Rita, I understand about the homeless problem, but, try about 70,000 in Los Angeles County.
I mean Olga, a big goof by me, I apologize.
Sounds like a democrat paradise, and they don't arrest criminals.
Los Angeles County has wayyyyy more people. Saying it's "not that bad" because it's not as bad as LA is a joke. LA is the worst of everything.
Awesome video, I live in North Dakota we have as many frigid months as ya'll have heat months. When I was stationed in Cali in 98 I'd go to Vegas every other weekend, It was AWESOME. Now just crazy, but fun to visit.Darrin Former Marine
Appreciate your info
Las Vegas will be a post-apocalyptic ghost town in the middle of the desert someday.
Great video thanks hun
under 100F its just dry heat and feels wonderful. AT 110F the heat pain sets in and dont be outside in.
100 degrees in Vegas doesn't feel bad at all, I agree :)
:) thanks for the info
I was looking at hotel rooms for May 17th weekend. Prices were insane. Now I know why. Makes for interesting people watching.
Thank you for your video. I'm old as dirt. I used to own a time share behind the strip. The foods I used to eat are 3x the cost now. I don't visit because of that. Sorry for the pup and the heat. That's crazy heat. But anyway, thanks for your vid.
Great place to vacation But A Bad City to reside in
cost of living is rapidly rising here , the worst part are the crazy drivers that will run you off the road , and not to mention the high cost of auto insurance , about 3 times higher than anywhere else in America....
I've considered Las Vegas a good retirement venue, and many people settle in Henderson to alleviate the social and lifestyle issues. Everyplace is expensive now, and crime is high everywhere, still think LV is better than a lot of place. Californians often moved here for (used to be) cheap housing. No state income tax, good shopping and you won't travel in town that much ....
The temperature alone will keep me at bay. I now ONLY go to Vegas in the first 3 or the last 3 months of the year.
Weather in Reno is better. Not as hot.
@@2A-Bear-Arms cuz its more up north. but besides that what is there to do in reno?
well i hope you can come to live in las vegas once the bullet train is installed in 2028
@@johnwick7583 You can still gamble. Play golf in the a.m. and drive up to Tahoe and ski in the afternoon.
@@2A-Bear-Arms sounds good for a family. But I prefer to go to nightclub with the bois. To each their own
We have the same temp thing on the other end of the spectrum. -40 for the low and -40 for the high (or colder) for weeks on end. Extreme heat and extreme cold are both brutal.
Now if you're down in a place like Tennessee I had to go to Once in the summer and it was 98° with 100% humidity at night that is hot sounds like you're breathing hot water air but at least in Vegas because it's dry it's not hot like I experienced in Tennessee with the humidity that was insane
Hi there! I lived in Vegas for 2 years or so & I loved it! Although that was in the early 2000s, It seemed clean & there was always "something to do". The prices were low (Housing, food etc) I live/stayed in a Motel on Boulder Hwy and was paying $200 a week for a room WITH a full kitchen & bathroom. That was great back then, so I can imagine what it is now. BUT to compare with California (Where i live now) where motels are nearly $100 a night WITHOUT anything but a room and a bathroom, no kitchen or anything I always look back and think "should I have stayed there in Vegas?" Of course i was much younger then too. In 2000, i was 34 years old, im now 58, so Im not so much interested in "Nightlife" anymore. I'm also disabled now and on SSI. I ask myself "could I survive in vegas in my situation?" Probably not! So it can go both ways, If you're young, it would probably be great, but once you're in your 40s or 50s, it would probably get boring. Don't get me wrong, I loved living in vegas! But was having a hard time surviving there because i had lost my job at the time (Which is why i was staying in the motel with my severance pay). I had an "offer" to move to california (For private reasons) so I did, but sometimes i wish i hadn't. I now live in a small area that is literally in the middle of nowhere in northern calif where there's literally nothing. Anyway thank you for this video & i will be watching your other video: "15 Reasons Why I LOVE Living in Las Vegas (as a local)" next...... Thank you again!!
When i heard the 1st reason, that was it, no need to go any further, im out!🥵🔥
😅😂 that's true ,summer heat is the worst part
I use to live in Las Vegas 20 years ago I came back to visit and it's not the same, it's seems like Detroit the type of people that moved in, I love the heat, but the inter city people that have moved in, it's like a big ghetto 😢 its really sad, l love Las Vegas I moved out to go to China for work came back and it's now a Detroit type in The desert.,God bless Las Vegas 😢
I’ve been to Phoenix when it was 100 at 0800 am. It didn’t feel so bad it was a dry heat.
Hi Olga I guess if it gets that hot you have to be which I've been there many times in the summer you have to do like to do in Phoenix practically live in your swimming pool and make sure you got a shade cover so I could deal with that part
I have lived in Las Vegas since 2006, and I can say that everything she says is accurate. Another thing I’m going to add is this place went downhill the last few years even the best areas of Summerlin and Henderson are sketchy people moving here from the ghetto of California making it not as nice as it used to be.
Thx for the info, sounds scary!😳👍
Fender bender car accidents. I’ve lived in Las Vegas for the past 7 years. I’ve seen over 170 accidents on the local streets. No exaggeration. Needless to say, car insurance is expensive here.
I lived there briefly in 2007 and ran back to Los Angeles. I found Vegas boring, and wasn't into gambling. I hated it there. Don't care for either city now. Left Los Angeles in 2017. Lol
I am retired and moved here 8 years 13:29 ago,and everything you said is true.Me and my wife love Nevada but,we are considering relocating further out of Las Vegas.
Dallas TX - nicer weather than Houston (brutal humidity), has big Vietnamese community I would assimilate to, diverse, no casinos in TX Utah or Hawaii, not as seedy as Vegas or Brooklyn 'the International Express', Bronx in unsafe NY, cleaner "environment" than LA and SF. Elon Musk $$$ via The Boring Company is drilling / tearing up LV. Don't live in USA!
@@patrickphuong2609 at this point your saying move to europe?
Vegas in DA house !!!! Love the heat !!!!!! 😂😊
Las Vegas running dangerous low on water the Colorado river system is on brink of collapseing
Love your informative videos, i looked at Vegas a couple years ago but I think its gone to big for me.
I consider las vegas a canary in coalmine area if, say, we enter deep recession, energy and water shortages occur, etc. Beware of desert areas for long-term living
Exactly 💯 Vegas will implode on itself ironically
Love your videos and all the information to at you are sharing ❤
You missed poor medical care. Getting an appointment to see a specialist can take many months and the hospitals can be full when you need a bed.
I am still planning to move to Las Vegas this summer, I am used to hot weather. I was raised in Houston.
Electricity is actually cheaper here than a lot of places. Price per KWH is
Shhh.... 🤫
This was an excellent video, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
It’s strange that these people look at past offenses to try and put people’s lives upside down, but ignore the deadly drunk driving and high crime. They like to ignore the real problems ( we are not back in 1955)
Agreed 👍
just subed to your channel
Great video!! Thank you!!
Why do you substitute the deaths that happened in those hot days? EDC had many deaths do to the heat hence they moved it. So yes the heat is like a blow dryer add radiation and you really feel it, I’m distraught by your statement.
Thank you Olga, your insider information is valued by we the outsiders.
There's hardly any buffets now you have to pay for valet utilities have gone up outrageously the rents are treacherous hospitality jobs don't pay much you need two or three of them to survive in the city a lot of the landmarks have been imploded they are no longer there I've lived here 30 years in Vegas is no longer Vegas it's turned into a sports arena
Another great video explaining what to expect if you were to ever move Vegas. I reached out to Olga regarding a specific topic on moving to Vegas and she was very helpful. I will say about the new construction. A few weeks back I drove to Vegas for a convention and Google maps took me in a different direction both to the convention and my hotel..lol!
I love the Vegas heat. I live in Fresno CA which has the exact same weather and I love it. Yes it is uncomfortable but for me it's very happy weather.
Single moms with “teens” moving into these “nice” neighborhoods from CA.
The high crime rate ~ low lifes ~ the bad drinking water~ and blocked in traffic for any reason is just not happening ~ people who move there claim their happy there but reality is they got trapped there. You have someone even recommending to gamble in the morning.which is the equivalent of smoking ~ there’s just no good reason to gamble that’s for ignorant people. I give Las Vegas a 1 star ~ low wages, low quality people, low quality water, low quality justice system it’s corrupt and broken beyond repair.
💯💯💯 it should be renamed Las Diablo.. because it's a hell hole, sand trap that tries to destroy everyone in every aspect of they're lives.
@@self-maid people destroy themselves. You did it to yourself....
@@CruickedReality I did what to myself? My life is wonderful..you sound triggered..u probably live at a budget suite on trop🤣
Exactly. I found Vegas depressing. I lasted 4 months. Hated it.
So where did you end up selling them a home? Everything is easier to to get to from west Desert inn ( going down hill) but if you live on the strip the shot glass buildings or the panorama or Martin would be my choice.
Another amazing video! Keep creating, please!!
Thank you! More to come.

Don't forget Washington DC current policies have a lot to do with the cost of living today.

Good luck getting a "nice weather" day to be outside in Vegas - most of the times the wind won't let you to enjoy those "comfortable temperatures" .
Especially when it's °117 outside and the wind blows hot air and sand simultaneously 👍🏼😃
I have lived in Laa Vegas since 1993. Las Vegas has turned into a shithole. If you have money, Las Vegas is great. If you have little or none, you are a ghost. Las Vegas is geared to those that have money. Our politicans bend over backwards to accomodate the gaming industry and citizens are ignored. Formula 1 is a classic example. Life was miserable for locals, especially those working on or near the Strip, during F1. Now gaming wants to bring a baseball team and a new stadium on the most congested intersection in Las Vegas, High crime rates. Driving the roads of Las Vegas is extremely stressful due to the lack of law enfrocement. People mistakenly mention Nevada's no personal income tax. In the video, Olga mentions that we are nickel and dimed with high registration fees, car insurance, gasoline taxes. We drove to Laughlin last week and gas prices were almost $1.00 a gallon cheaper in Arizona). Nevada might not have a personal income tax, but Nevada finds other ways to collect.
How can a government supposed to function without money?
I heard there was a scorpion problem. Can you make a video about the pest there. I am thinking about moving the family there from ohio at the beginning of the year.
We moved here from Ohio over 3 years ago and have never seen any
@@thatlasvegaslife2033Well that’s very good to hear. I will continue to make plans to relocate there at the end of the year. 👍
I’ve been here for 17 years and I’ve never seen one. I did hear a friend getting stung once.
Please don't move your family there🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 don't say you weren't told
I only experience scorpions in Pahrump. (60 mile drive)
Las vegas is what meant to be Sincity!!!!...i mean you dont have to die to see hell...its hell here... So rent is expensive, too much heat,ppl are racist, lizards are everywhere....i wish i knew this before i moved here now i can not even find where to move.... 😢😢😢
Double your paycheck. Those are the signs I remember.
Oh it’s worst in Florida!😂
Not Central Florida compare the Vegas this is Mayberry we just left Vegas for the second or third time about 2-3 years ago this traffic is nothing compared to Vegas
Oh the schools are so bad any cop or teacher becomes Conor Mcgregor and will beat your child. It’s seriously sickening.

She's mostly right. F1 absolutely sucked. But she left out the biggest thing. California. They moved here, so everyone jacked up the prices and they brought their drama with them.

Don’t forget WNBA two-time champs “Aces”
All valid points
I refer California.
"tuyetvo4353," If you used Spell Check, or re-read what you typed before clicking Comment, you would have typed "I prefer California" so everyone at least has a fighting chance to understand what "tuyetvo4353" said.
The homeless live near tourists to beg from them. The major problem for them is the lack of land, in Vegas valley just about every inch is "private" property which is a scam , without common areas you have no culture no society and no people, Las Vegas is a bunch of customers who come to pay and the more the better.
She forgot one other problem that it is under a security regime where the public areas are closed so no one can really use the buses etc , basically an african junta .
Summerly n is very great being a private town it has much better vibe, the real problem is Paradise unincorporated area where there is no public maintenance even the county library never even washes its enterways. Gross
You won't catch me visiting that place. The casinos are just a scam and the lights are just a form of pollution.
Not much different from California as far as inflation goes. At least, it's in the middle of nowhere, and I won't worry about it.
Las Vegas has only reached 118 degrees one time in history and it was in 1931! She talked like it happens every year.
Put your hands down . Damn , I can't keep listening ......Arg ....Hands .......
