If you look at a map of the Southwest United States, oriented so that Las Vegas is in the middle, you will see that Las Vegas is a part of a major hub of large cities such as Los Angeles, San Diego/Tijuana, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City, and a hub of smaller, but still relatively large cities such as St. George, Flagstaff, and Tuscon. Las Vegas is also a large, full-sized city, sandwiched in the midway point between Southern California and Salt Lake City and Salt Lake City and Phoneix, and the many various combinations thereof.
Being a current Las Vegas resident myself, I can tell you that I personally know of Californian companies such as social media marketing company Social Spin, (based in Las Vegas) and internet pioneer Ebay (based in Henderson), who base their operations here but do business in other locales. There are practically no corporate taxes (there is an annual $200 business license fee, come on) and no income tax. Being from California originally myself, I can tell you without a doubt that when it comes to be tax time that you get two sets of taxes forms you have to fill out: Federal and State. In Nevada, however, you only fill out Federal forms.
Not to mention the two major, mulit-billion dollar industries which keep cash flowing in, namely gambling and mining. Combine this with our business friendly laws and optimal location, and this it is plain to see that opportunity is rife in the Southwestern United States. Look at the situation:
- Las Vegas is perfectly situated to benefit from traffic and trade in between the numerous cities and metropolises in the vicinity.
- It has built in cash-flow mechanisms (gambling and mining).
- Easy tax laws make Nevada a desirable place for both business and individuals.
- The crash of the real estate bubble has made buying good real estate a viable option for people who missed out on the whole housing boom. They can now buy nice 5-bedroom houses in the best parts of town for the low $100,000s, which was once in the $300,000+ range. Rents in general are much cheaper than they were two years ago.
