Henderson, Nevada can be a wonderful place to live. There are a lot of parks, driving is easy, crime is low, and culture and entertainment are 20 minutes away. You can choose to live at the edge of Las Vegas, or at the very edge of town by the desert and mountains. If you like the heat and the big blue sky, this could be the place for you. If you like the seasons and green trees, not so much!
Henderson has a very diverse community, filled with kind and compassionate individuals willing to help a fellow member out! It is safe, comfortable, and has activities that fit an expansive array of interests. The only reason I gave Henderson 4 stars instead of 5 is because at times it can be very clique-y. Although the community has people from all walks of life, it also has some exclusive groups, making it a little harder to make new friends and expand your circle.
I love how much safer it is to live here. Even though the strip gives us a certain reputation, our city has the resources it needs to protect us. I also love how diverse we are! Nevada is an incredible mix of cultures from all over the world! You won’t meet anyone who looks exactly like anyone else, and I love that! However, my favorite thing about Henderson is our churches! We are home to incredible houses of worship, from Central Church to my favorite, Church LV! These amazing Christian voices are raising up a generation of Nevadans who can bring light back into Sin City!
