If you live in the communities of Summerlin or Silverado, you will no longer find your Home News section in the Las Vegas Sun. However, there is good news as well. You will be able to find current editions on-line. The internet continues to impact our lives on a daily basis. The Information Highway has certainly had a strong impact on the printed word. Most newspapers today offer on-line editions. Some newspapers have converted to on-line editions only. The Home editions for Summerlin and Silverado are among those converting to on-line access only.
In our modern world, more and more people are choosing to access the news from their home computers. The Summerlin and Silverado communities are no exception, with over 70% of Summerlin and Silverado households accessing their news via the Internet. Due to this trend, the Greenspun Media Group/Las Vegas Sun has decided to place the Home News for these communities online. The new online Home News for Summerlin and Silverado will be receiving expanded community information and news online at LasVegasSun.com. More detailed information for the communities will include business, real estate and crime news. Information services will include mini-documentariles, interactive flash graphics and high-resolution visuals. The changeover from printed word to online edition begins this week on Thursday, March 5.

My New Year's resolution was to begin a new endeavor, something I have never done before - to start a blog about the city of my heart, Las Vegas.
Las Vegas is the renown jewel in the Mohave Desert known as a gambling mecca and the entertainment capitol of the world.
Las Vegas is all this and so much more.
Las Vegas is a bustling city, the largest in the state of Nevada. Las Vegas is made up of many communities and is home to over 1.41 million people.
The various neighborhoods which make up the Las Vegas Valley include: Anthem, the City of Las Vegas, Canyon Gate, Desert Shores, Green Valley, Lake Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Northwest Las Vegas, Peccole Ranch, Queensridge, Seven Hills, Southern Highlands, Southwest Las Vegas, Spanish Trails, Spring Valley, Summerlin and The Lakes.
The diverse real estate of the Las Vegas Valley consists of master planned communities, golf communities, estate neighborhoods, adult oriented (50+) communities, equestrian properties, condominiums, townhouses and the newest addition to Las Vegas real estate is the luxury highrise residence.
Most homes in the Las Vegas area are occupied by members of the Las Vegas community, but there is a large segment of second-home owners as well.
In future blogs I will bring to you information on the various communities and neighborhoods of Las Vegas and special local events
. I will also feature blogs on information valuable to homeowners, home sellers, and home buyers. My blogs will also include real estate news in the Las Vegas community and on a national level.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope that you will return to learn more about the "other" LasVegas, the Las Vegas of people and communities.

Your attention to detail made each step go smoothly and professionally. It also meant a lot to me when you stayed on top of issues even when they were beyond your scope of responsibility.

This was not an easy job for her as we had many requirements that were not easy to find in a new home. She perservered and never let us down.
