Growing up in Pahrump after moving from Las Vegas was extremely quiet. Pahrump is 60 miles outside of the city, we have 3 stop lights.
Moving into Pahrump during my middle school years, there wasn't much to do. Which is part of the appeal to many. Now as a soon-to-be graduating High School Senior, it has helped me become a big fish in a small pond. Our town is growing slowly and steadily. The community has multiple ways to give and receive. Overall, many residents of Pahrump are hard-working and dedicated to their craft trying to bring new opportunities to students, families, and especially low-income scenarios with multiple community-raised events. While being a low-income city, to begin with, the state works hard on maintaining roads, expanding the town, and improving in general. Change is steady in this town, we can only hope and work hard for the correct direction.
