Sin City Living » 2007 » February

This weekend’s house-hunting trip was cancelled due to an unforgiving work schedule (one of the reasons we want to move). We were planning to stay at the Good Day Inn. From the poor reviews on TripAdvisor this is not a great place to stay.

Looks like I’ll have another week to continue looking at online listings.

Yep . . . Vegas. After much consideration (and healthy debate) my wife and I have decided to abandon our Los Angeles house-hunt and move to Sin City. Why Las Vegas over Los Angeles?

Reasons for leaving L.A.

• Despite our dual income we cannot afford the type of home we want.
• Traffic is GOD awful. All the time.
• The cost of living is high.
• We are unhappy with our stressful and demanding jobs.

Reasons for moving to L.V.

• Affordable housing.
• 4-5 hour drive to visit family in Southern California.
• Good restaurants and vibrant nightlife.
• No state income tax means we’ll keep more of the money we earn.

This blog will chronicle our search for a new home, relocation and adventures in Las Vegas, Nevada.
