Re: Best Place to Live and Play

Um, no. Vegas is a horrible place to raise a family. I grew up in the midwest and after living here a while and seeing how kids are raised here, there is ZERO chance of me raising a family here. Anyone who has their kid's interests before their own would do the same, IMO.

That's certainly overstating the situation. But yeah, teenagers have a raft of special ways to get in trouble in Vegas. The most common reason I hear for why people leave after being here a few years is "my oldest just turned 14". I'm not sure it's possible to grow up to be a sexually and morally well-adjusted person if you spend your teenage years in Vegas.
Vegas schools are kinda sucky, but then so are most schools most places. Not sure Vegas is seriously a worse place for kids 0-12 than any other average sorta place. And OP said he was contemplating starting a family so he has a good long while he can hang out in Vegas before worrying much about his teenage kids.
