The Las Vegas–Henderson–Paradise metro has 2.3M residents (per 2024 ACS 5-year Estimates ), a 2024 median household income of $76K, median home value of $431K, median age of 38, and a 28% bachelor's-degree share among adults 25 and older. The analysis below clusters neighborhoods within the metro's urbanized areas, covering 2.1M of those 2.3M residents. Wealth, age, and education all concentrate along the western and southern rim — Summerlin and Henderson — while the inner core east of downtown reads youngest, lowest-income, and least-educated.
Median home value
The neighborhood anchored on Summerlin South tops the metro at $830K, nearly double the $431K metro median; Summerlin is the upper-class master-planned development along the valley's western edge. West Henderson follows at $737K on the metro's southern edge, with a western cluster at $736K, the South Las Vegas cluster at $682K, and a southern pocket at $646K filling out the high end.
The bottom sits in the inner core just east of downtown Las Vegas. A cluster east of the city reads $122K, the metro's lowest, with an adjoining east-side cluster at $233K. Pockets in west Paradise at $250K, south North Las Vegas at $254K, and south of Sunrise Manor at $261K round out the bottom. The map confines the ≥$600K band to the western and southern fringe, concentrates the <$300K band in the central-east core, and shows most of the metro reading $400K–$500K.
Median household income
The western edge leads: a cluster west of Las Vegas reads $153K, twice the $76K metro median, with the South Las Vegas cluster at $148K, West Henderson at $139K, Summerlin South at $133K, and a cluster north of Las Vegas at $127K. The metro's six-figure-income neighborhoods sit almost entirely on the western and southern rim.
The lowest incomes sit in the urban core. A South Las Vegas cluster near downtown reads $38K, with East Las Vegas at $40K, an east-side cluster at $41K, and north and west Paradise both at $43K. The map reads as a clear core-versus-rim divide: the inner east falls in the <$50K band while the western edge and Henderson push into the ≥$110K band.
Median age
Henderson , the state's second-largest city and a metro built on master-planned communities, holds the oldest neighborhoods: South Henderson at 59 and West Henderson at 57, against the 38 metro median. Two South Las Vegas clusters follow at 54 and 50, with Summerlin South at 48.
The youngest neighborhoods sit on the northeast side near Nellis Air Force Base . A cluster north of Sunrise Manor reads 27, the metro's youngest, with west-of-Sunrise-Manor clusters at 29 and 32 and a south North Las Vegas cluster at 31. Outside the Henderson retirement edge and the young northeast core, most of the metro reads 35–45 on the map.
Adults 25+ with bachelor's degree
The South Las Vegas cluster leads at 61% of adults holding a bachelor's degree, more than double the 28% metro share, with West Henderson at 53% and 52%, South Henderson at 51%, and Summerlin South at 51% — the same western and southern rim that tops home value and income.
The lowest-education neighborhoods sit in the central-east core. An east-side cluster reads 5%, a south North Las Vegas cluster 5%, and three Sunrise Manor clusters 6%–7%. The map shows the ≥45% band on the western and southern rim and the <10% band across the inner east and Sunrise Manor.
Where the metrics overlap
The western and southern rim is the metro's clearest cross-metric peak. Summerlin South tops home value and ranks high on income, age, and education together; West Henderson joins it at the top on home value, income, and education while also sitting among the oldest neighborhoods at 57. The inner core east of downtown and Sunrise Manor is the mirror image: lowest home values, lowest incomes, lowest education shares, and the youngest ages all coincide there.
The one clear divergence is age. In many metros the oldest neighborhoods sit apart from the income and education extremes, but here Henderson's southern communities combine the metro's highest ages with its top incomes and education shares. The west-of-Las-Vegas cluster also tops income at $153K without leading on home value or age.
