Las Vegas Lifestyle
Las Vegas is known for the slogan “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas” and the Las Vegas strip. The strip is an adult wonderland with glamorous casinos and other adult entertainment. However, away from the strip, you’ll find a different atmosphere.
You’ll find celebrity estates and suburban neighborhoods that have little resemblance to the Vegas known to tourists. Las Vegas is home to several state and national parks, including Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. There are also cultural attractions, including the Smith Center for the Performing Arts.
