55+ Communities in Las Vegas and Henderson
Las Vegas has some of the country’s largest active-adult communities, from resale-only Sun City neighborhoods built in the 1990s to gated new-construction communities still selling today. Add Nevada’s tax picture for retirees and it’s easy to see why so many buyers relocate here for retirement.Why Retirees Choose Nevada
- No state income tax. Social Security, pensions, 401(k) and IRA withdrawals aren’t taxed by the state.
- Property tax cap. Nevada limits yearly property tax increases on an owner-occupied primary home to 3% (NRS 361.4723).
- Year-round golf, pickleball and hiking, with Red Rock Canyon and Lake Mead nearby.
