Overall, living in Vegas, Pro : no state tax, property tax is much cheaper, The lay out of Vegas is great, driving is easy. As far as the weather, it took me 3 yrs to get used to the summer with temp to 117F and dry heat from jun to oct, I met someone from Calif, he said his arthritis became better after moving to Vegas. There are about 5-6 times of raining days per year. In compare to Fl, Vegas has no hurricane, and in compare to Calif, Vegas has no earthquake.
