Tell me about living in Las Vegas
Seriously considering a move in the next month to two months. I have some great job opportunities out there, and my wife and BIL have more opportunity out there as well. As much as I love where I'm at, adult Disneyland doesn't sound too bad either for a guy with no children. I have some questions I'm hoping some folks here can answer for me.

1. Where do I NOT want to live around Vegas?

2. Are there some temporary places available for us until we find long term housing?

3. My BIL works in the restaurant industry, and low level jobs. He's slightly mentally disabled but has a very good work ethic, and is self sufficient. What are average wages for just above low level jobs out there? What kind of tip money could a busser make in a decent restaurant?

4. How easy is it to get a pot card? I've seen sleep apnea, and all sorts of crazy shit getting you one of these in other states. How relaxed is it? And are there stores I can buy it from, or do I have to procure it on my own?

I'm sure I'll think of more as I go along, and feel free to throw in any pertinent information you think I should be aware of. I appreciate the insight, and info in advance.

Be prepared to pick people up at the airport and act as tour guide 3 weekends a month.
Before I moved to Vegas, I was the red headed step child of the family...no ne visited me. Then I moved to Vegas and all of the sudden I was recieving birthday cards from anyone with my last name and endless beef baskets from god knows who? in Other words, you will become the most popular person you know. One weekend, I was dropping someone off at the airport and immiately picking someone up. I even considered buying real estate near or on The Tarmac at the airport to save on gas. And you learn how to say " And that's the Bellagio on the left" like a pro.

I always kind of assumed that if you go to Vegas you don't want to see anyone you know.

Just remember to slap the cards against your hand or leg to get tourist's attention to accept your porn. It's against the law to talk to them.

Also you need to find a really cool costume to wear on the strip for posing with tourist.

Meh...

Lived in Vegas for 2 years. Worst mistake ever. (kind of)

The Bad: Las Vegas is generally a shit hole. It's a small city with no career growth and no jobs except casinos and food service. Its a small city. If you're well off then great. But careers are very limited. The city is completely dominated by casinos. You'll get tired of it really quick. After a month living there you'll never go to the strip again.

It just feels evil. The vibe here is atrocious. Everyone knows how sleazy and paranoid you feel once you get out of McCaran airport and smell the air. Imagine that feeling year round. Imagine getting used to it.

Tons of morally bankrupt individuals. Not everyone, but a lot. Met a lot of porn stars, strippers, drug addicts, drug dealers, gamblers, etc... Don't have kids here.

Worst part is that everyone thinks theyre cosmopolitan when Nevada has a high white trash population. It's just not that sophisticated in Las Vegas.

Can't believe you lost your job with the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce.

My dad lived there for 5 years and loved everything but the crime and occasionally the heat that would bust out car windows if you didn't have them well cracked.

The crime is apparently atrocious... but for things to do and cheap food you cant beat it.
