the buses are actually ok. I went without a car for a couple of months. the buses do run on time, and fairly often on major streets. (every 15 or 20 minutes) he should be ok busing back and forth to work.

Where did you live by chance? That was the other question, just how close do you have to live by a major busline, etc.

I live near UNLV, so I have easy access to 2 major lines. (maryland and trop)
I wouldn't want to live more than a block from a stop. In the summer, the heat gets to you quick!
Also, the farther you get from the strip, the less concentrated the system gets. I doubt there is a whole lot of service in Henderson / Green valley.

Once you get off the strip, the ridership isn't bad. It's mostly seniors, people going to work, and a surprising number of school kids.
