Most people know Las Vegas for the Strip and the entertainment but there is so much more. Las Vegas is just one of the cities situated at the southern tip of Nevada in the Great Basin – the western region between the Sierra Nevada and Wasatch mountain ranges that is the Las Vegas Valley.

The Las Vegas Valley itself is comprised of nearly 600 square miles and runs from northwest to southeast and slopes downward from west to east. The mountains surrounding the valley extend as high as 2,000 to 10,000 feet above the valley floor. The Sheep Range bounds the valley on the north. The Black Mountains bound the valley on the south. The Spring Mountains are to the west and include Mt. Charleston, the area's highest elevation, peaking at 11,918 feet.

The valley as a whole is comprised of great shopping malls and facilities, schools, parks, business centers, airports, community centers, homes, condos, and apartments to meet any budget or desire. People can find whatever they want once they move into the valley.
