    Probability of people actually READING NEWS REPORTS as well WATCHING VIDEOS at U Tube of Imminent WATER CRISIS and Vegas getting around 23% when WATER CRISES go full DOOM.
    Maybe some potential buyers are actually PAYING ATTENTION??

    I like it out west and would consider the LV area if it weren't for the water situation. The long term viability of everything seems iffy.

    My wife and I are considering our other no tax state choice of Florida instead. I guess you could say they are good in the water department. Our combined state income tax is slightly more than our mortgage payment.

    I've lived in Florida and really like it there. Can't get the wife onboard though to move there. She hasn't lived in Florida, but has seen a lot of it when she rode with me in the truck when I did refrigerated trucking.

    A city built on spending discretionary income sees less discretionary income being spent during massive inflation.

    Building a mega city in the desert .

    what could possibly go wrong ?

    Deserts , by definition , don’t have much water .

    Meh
    I don’t really like Florida
    Too hot and flat .
    No reason to live there at all unless you’re ocean front and can see the waves from your living room .

    Tennessee on the other hand ….
    Plenty of mountains and rolling hills , and about 20 degrees cooler .

    states with no income tax always make that revenue up some other way though .

    usually through property tax and vehicle taxes
    The state I live in has a 5% state income tax and the property taxes are generally 1% of the value but it varies by county, the more democrat voters in the county, the higher the property taxes are . Also the crime is much higher in those areas too .

    Texas has no income tax but has very high property taxes
