SAFETY & CRIME
Is Centennial Hills North Safe?
Yes. Centennial Hills North is a newer residential community with high homeownership, engaged neighbors, and low vacancy — the combination that structurally suppresses property crime. Las Vegas tracks below national violent-crime averages in FBI Uniform Crime Reporting comparisons, and the northwest corridor is consistent with that pattern.

What Buyers Should Know
Newer-construction communities structurally reduce certain crime categories: modern street lighting, functioning infrastructure, and high owner-occupancy all suppress the opportunistic property crime that older, higher-vacancy neighborhoods tend to experience. Centennial Hills North's 65% homeownership rate reflects an engaged, invested resident base — a demographic that correlates with lower incident rates across neighborhood-safety research.
Beyond the residential character, the northwest Las Vegas growth corridor has attracted significant retail, medical, and service investment, which brings ambient activity and economic stability that further reinforces safety. The City of Las Vegas's parks programming at the 120-acre Centennial Hills Park keeps youth active and the community engaged.
For buyers wanting additional safety intelligence, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department publishes precinct-level crime data covering the northwest corridor. The broader Centennial Hills area consistently tracks below valley-wide averages, and the active-builder portions of Centennial Hills North have the added benefit of active construction management reducing overnight vacancy exposure.

It fits growing families wanting newer-construction quality without the Summerlin price step-up, California relocators trading state income tax for space and freshness, move-up buyers seeking modern layouts after older Las Vegas stock, and first-time buyers who qualify for FHA or Nevada Housing Division assistance programs targeting $400K–$500K price points.

LIVABILITY REPORT CARD
How Does Centennial Hills North Score for Livability?
Centennial Hills North earns strong marks for newer construction quality, value, and park access, with honest trade-offs on school ratings and a longer commute to the Strip than east-side addresses. The six categories below are what our agents walk through with every relocating family before a first tour.
Grade A: Value
$400K–$700K newer construction with $80–$200/mo HOA — the strongest price-per-square-foot story in northwest Las Vegas for buyers prioritizing modern layouts.
Grade B+: Schools
Doral Academy 9/10 and Coral Academy 8/10 lead the charter tier; Scherkenbach Elementary 7/10 for zoned public. Verify CCSD zone for your specific address.
Grade B+: Safety
Newer residential community with low vacancy and high homeownership. Las Vegas tracks below national violent-crime averages per FBI UCR comparisons; northwest corridor is consistent with that trend.
Grade A: Amenities
Centennial Hills Park 120 acres, Floyd Lamb Park 680 acres, growing Centennial Parkway retail corridor, and Downtown Summerlin 15 minutes west.
Grade A: Outdoor Access
Centennial Hills Park trails and sports fields on-site, Floyd Lamb Park nearby, Red Rock Canyon 20 minutes west — a strong outdoor footprint for a newer-construction family community.
Grade B: Commute
US-95 puts the Strip about 25 minutes south and the airport 30 minutes — workable but longer than east-side or Henderson addresses. I-215 West reaches Summerlin in 15 minutes.

Is Centennial Hills North a good place to live in Las Vegas?

Honest trade-offs: a 25-minute Strip commute and school ratings that trail the Summerlin tier. Nevada's zero state income tax sweetens every relocation to this corridor.

POPULATION & GROWTH
How Fast Is the Centennial Hills North Area Growing?
Centennial Hills North is still actively building — construction phases continue, and the retail, medical, and school infrastructure is catching up to a population that has grown rapidly since 2015. Las Vegas has added roughly 120,000 residents since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, and the northwest corridor has absorbed a disproportionate share of that growth as the city's newest buildable land.
Las Vegas city population trajectory, 2010–2030 (projected)
Inside Centennial Hills North, growth means both expansion and appreciation: active builder phases are still releasing lots, while early buyers in completed sections have already seen infrastructure and retail mature around them. The northwest corridor's continued buildout is the investment story for buyers entering before full amenity maturity.

Quick Answer
What does an HOA cost in Centennial Hills North?
HOA fees in Centennial Hills North typically run $80 to $200 per month depending on the specific sub-neighborhood and its included amenities — lower than most comparable Summerlin communities. Coverage varies: some sub-associations fund parks, pools, or features; others cover only common-area maintenance. Pull the full resale package — current dues, reserve fund status, and any pending special assessments — during escrow before your inspection contingency expires.
Should I Move to Centennial Hills North?
Centennial Hills North delivers more square footage per dollar than most comparable Las Vegas addresses. Nevada has no state income tax — California's top rate is 13.3% per the Franchise Tax Board — and that gap, combined with $400K–$700K newer construction and a 120-acre regional park, makes the relocation math clear for northwest-bound families.
Why California Families Are Choosing Centennial Hills North
The tax math alone moves the needle at every income level: California's top marginal state income tax is 13.3% — Nevada's is zero. A household earning $150,000 saves over $15,000 per year before a single housing dollar is counted. Centennial Hills North adds a second argument California's inland suburbs cannot answer: newer-construction homes from $400,000 to $700,000 with contemporary open floor plans, smart-home technology, and active builder incentives — priced well below what comparable new construction costs in Southern California's growth corridors.
At a $550,000 budget, California buyers in the Inland Empire are competing for older mid-century homes in crowded school zones. That same budget in Centennial Hills North secures a newer-construction four-bedroom home with an open-concept great room, energy-efficient HVAC, smart-home features, and spring-mountain backdrop views in northwest Las Vegas — with Centennial Hills Park around the corner, Downtown Summerlin fifteen minutes west, and Nevada's zero income tax compounding every financial advantage going forward.
According to Las Vegas REALTORS, the median list price across ZIPs 89149/89166 is $599,000. Per the Clark County Assessor, the effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value. FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data places Las Vegas below national violent-crime averages, and GreatSchools rates Doral Academy of Nevada at 9/10, with Scherkenbach Elementary at 7/10 for the zoned public option.
Centennial Hills North runs on northwest Las Vegas's growth engine: the Centennial Parkway retail corridor adds medical facilities, restaurants, and services year over year as the residential base fills in. The US-95 corridor delivers Strip and downtown employment in about 25 minutes, and the 215 Beltway rings to Summerlin, Henderson, and valley-wide job centers within 30 minutes from most addresses.
Cost of Living Snapshot — Centennial Hills North, NV vs. Inland Empire, CA
Day-to-day costs run meaningfully lower than comparable California growth corridors across every category that drives family budgets. Nevada has no state income tax and no personal property tax on vehicles beyond registration. The category that flips hardest is what families care about most: a newer-construction four-bedroom home that costs $550,000 here typically costs $700,000–$900,000 or more in Southern California's comparable family submarkets.
| Metric | Centennial Hills North, NV | Inland Empire, CA |
|---|---|---|
| State Income Tax | None | Up to 13.3% |
| Newer-Construction Entry Point | $400K (Centennial Hills North) | $650K+ typical |
| Effective Property Tax Rate | ~0.5%–0.7% | ~1.1% on new purchases |
| HOA Monthly | $80–$200 | $200–$400 typical |

Start Your Northwest Las Vegas SearchRELOCATION TIMELINE
How to relocate to Centennial Hills North in 8 steps
From first research to keys-in-hand, here's the 8-12 week timeline most Centennial Hills North buyers follow. Two deadlines are statutory: Nevada requires a driver's license within 30 days of residency and vehicle registration within 60, per the Nevada DMV — miss them and registration penalties stack.
Pick your section and budget tier
Decide which Centennial Hills North you are buying: $400K–$460K Centennial Commons entry, $450K–$530K Parkside park-adjacent, $470K–$580K Centennial Crossing family core, or $500K–$700K+ North Trails elevated views. Each section carries different school-zone variables, builder mixes, and proximity trade-offs.
Get pre-approved for your loan type
Most Centennial Hills North purchases fall within conforming loan limits. Buyers under $430K may qualify for FHA 3.5% down, Nevada Housing Division assistance, or USDA programs. VA buyers with full entitlement need $0 down regardless of price. Work with a lender who can handle your specific program before you tour so offers are ready when you find the right home.
Hire a Centennial Hills North specialist
Builder-phase knowledge, school-zone verification, and section-by-section price analysis require an agent who has closed multiple transactions in this specific community. Nevada Real Estate Group specialists know which builder phases are still negotiating incentives and which sections are built-out resale-only.
Tour builder models and resale inventory
Open houses and builder models are accessible — no gate coordination required. Tour multiple builder model homes in the same visit and compare floor plans, standard finish levels, and lot selections. Bring your Nevada Real Estate Group agent to every builder sales office — the sales rep represents the builder, not you.
Write and negotiate the offer
Entry-priced homes in the $400K–$500K band can attract multiple offers; North Trails elevated positions typically give more room to negotiate. On new construction, negotiate incentives before committing to the builder's preferred lender — the rate can be separately compared.
Inspection, HOA docs, and title review
Newer construction still requires a professional inspection — builder defects and installation issues show up. For resale, pay close attention to HVAC and roof age. Pull the full HOA resale package for any sub-association: current dues, reserves, CC&Rs, and pending assessments on the first day of escrow.
Clear conditions and fund
Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys; expect 30-45 days from acceptance on resale and up to 12 months on new builds. New-construction appraisals are based on builder contract price and go smoothly when comps support the number. New-construction buyers should confirm delivery timeline in writing before signing.
Close, move, and register
Transfer utilities (NV Energy, Southwest Gas, City of Las Vegas water and sewer), change your address with USPS and financial institutions, then handle the Nevada DMV — license within 30 days, vehicle registration within 60 days of establishing residency.

The 5-year breakeven
Owning a $450,000 Centennial Hills North home for five years nets out competitively against renting once principal paydown and conservative 3% appreciation are counted — and the owner exits with roughly $130,000 in total equity while the renter exits with none. The continued northwest corridor growth trajectory gives that appreciation assumption structural grounding.
Model assumptions: 7.0% 30-yr fixed (Freddie Mac PMMS), 3% annual appreciation, 4% annual rent growth, 0.6% effective property tax, $130/mo blended HOA, ~7% resale costs.

Centennial Hills North FAQ — 18 Answers
What Do Centennial Hills North Buyers Most Frequently Ask?
Most AskedWhat is the price range for homes in Centennial Hills North?
Homes in Centennial Hills North run approximately $400,000 to $700,000, depending on builder, floor plan, lot size, and upgrade package. The community spans roughly 3,000 homes built from 2015 onward, ranging from about 1,400 to 3,500 square feet with contemporary open layouts and energy-efficient systems. Multiple builders and active phases mean pricing varies block by block — pull specific comps from Nevada Real Estate Group before writing an offer to understand exactly where a property sits within the band.
Which builders are active in Centennial Hills North?
National and regional builders active in Centennial Hills North include Lennar, Pulte Homes, Taylor Morrison, KB Home, and Century Communities. Each brings a different spread of floor plans, finish tiers, and incentive programs, so comparing builder-to-builder on the same street is worth the effort. Bring your own buyer representation to every sales-office visit — builders represent themselves, not you, and Nevada Real Estate Group can advise across all active builders without cost to you as a buyer.
Is Centennial Hills North a good area for families?
Yes — Centennial Hills North is purpose-built for families. Newer Clark County School District campuses, the 120-acre Centennial Hills Park with sports fields, skate park, and walking trails, and growing retail and dining along the Centennial Parkway corridor make it one of northwest Las Vegas's most family-ready addresses. Homes date from 2015 onward with contemporary layouts and smart-home technology. Match your school priorities to specific attendance zones early — they shift as the area grows.
What ZIP codes cover Centennial Hills North?
Centennial Hills North spans ZIP codes 89149 and 89166 in northwest Las Vegas, with homes priced from $400,000 to $700,000. From either ZIP, plan about 25 minutes to the Strip via US-95, 15 minutes to Downtown Summerlin via I-215 West, and 20 minutes to Red Rock Canyon. Search both ZIP codes when browsing listings — inventory splits across them, and filtering just one can hide significant portions of the available market.
How does Centennial Hills North compare to Summerlin?
Centennial Hills North wins on price: newer construction at prices meaningfully below comparable Summerlin homes, with HOA fees of $80–$200 monthly versus Summerlin sub-associations that often run higher. Summerlin counters with deeper amenities, a stronger resale brand, and a wider luxury bench. If maximum house-per-dollar with new construction is the priority, buy here. If long-run brand premium and a richer amenity set matter most, pay the Summerlin step-up — Downtown Summerlin is only about 15 minutes away from Centennial Hills North regardless.
What are HOA fees in Centennial Hills North?
HOA fees in Centennial Hills North typically run $80 to $200 per month depending on the specific sub-neighborhood and its included amenities. That range sits well below comparable Summerlin sub-associations, which is a meaningful component of the area's value story. Coverage varies: some sub-associations fund extra parks, pools, or features; others cover only common-area maintenance. Request the resale package for the exact neighborhood and confirm current dues and any pending assessments before your contingency deadlines.
What schools serve Centennial Hills North?
Centennial Hills North is served by newer Clark County School District campuses: Scherkenbach Elementary (7/10 GreatSchools), Edmundo "Eddie" Escobedo Sr. Middle School (6/10), and Centennial High School (6/10). Charter options include Doral Academy of Nevada at Pebble (9/10) and Coral Academy of Science (8/10). Bishop Gorman High School (A+) anchors the private tier within reasonable drive time. Verify the attendance zone for any specific address with CCSD before writing an offer — boundaries shift as the community grows.
Is Centennial Hills North still growing?
Yes — active new-home construction continues in multiple phases, and retail, dining, and medical services keep opening along the Centennial Parkway corridor as the population fills in. That growth creates genuine opportunity for early buyers who ride appreciation as amenities mature, but expect some construction activity nearby depending on which section you choose. Ask Nevada Real Estate Group which sections are fully built out versus still active so you can weigh that trade-off deliberately before closing.
What are the best sub-neighborhoods within Centennial Hills North?
The strongest sub-neighborhoods depend on your priorities. Centennial Crossing offers family-focused layouts from $425,000 with proximity to Centennial Hills Park. North Trails delivers mountain views and larger lots from $500,000 in the quietest sections. Centennial Commons starts from $400,000 for first-time buyers. Parkside places residents walking distance from sports fields and playgrounds. Nevada Real Estate Group specialists can match the specific streets to your school-zone, lot-size, and commute priorities — call (702) 637-1759.
How is new-construction availability in Centennial Hills North?
Availability shifts by builder phase and season. Lennar, Pulte, Taylor Morrison, KB Home, and Century Communities all operate phases here, and some sections are fully built out while others are actively releasing lots. Incentives, delivery timelines, and pricing change monthly — contact Nevada Real Estate Group at (702) 637-1759 for current availability, and our team will match active phases to your timeline and budget without any cost to you as a buyer.
What parks are near Centennial Hills North?
Centennial Hills Park at 7101 N Buffalo Drive is the anchor — 120 acres of sports fields, playgrounds, a skate park, walking trails, and picnic shelters, one of the largest parks in northwest Las Vegas. The Centennial Hills Library Park at 6711 N Buffalo Drive adds a community garden and walking paths. Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, a 680-acre historic preserve with fishing ponds and wildlife viewing, is about 10 minutes east. The City of Las Vegas maintains all three, and entry is free.
What is the commute like from Centennial Hills North?
Commutes from Centennial Hills North run about 25 minutes to the Strip via US-95 South to I-15, 30 minutes to Harry Reid International Airport via the same corridor, 15 minutes to Downtown Summerlin via I-215 West, and 20 minutes to Red Rock Canyon. The US-95 corridor is the primary artery — plan for peak-hour slowdowns on that stretch heading south. Centennial Parkway connects efficiently to the 215 Beltway, which rings the valley and reaches most major employment centers within 30 minutes.
What property taxes are like in Centennial Hills North?
Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value per the Clark County Assessor, and the state caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3% under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471. On a $500,000 purchase, plan around $2,500 to $3,500 annually. For new-construction purchases, the assessed value is set at the initial purchase price — the 3% cap then governs future increases. Verify the post-sale tax figure with the Assessor before building your ownership-cost model.
What makes Centennial Hills North a good investment?
Three structural factors support long-run value in Centennial Hills North. First, continued buildout: as retail, dining, medical, and schools reach full maturity, early buyers capture appreciation from improving amenities. Second, northwest Las Vegas population growth: Clark County is projected to add significant residents through 2030 per U.S. Census trends, and the northwest corridor is a primary growth vector. Third, price accessibility: $400,000–$700,000 newer construction draws a strong pool of buyers and tenants, keeping inventory liquid and maintaining demand breadth.
What should I know before buying in Centennial Hills North?
Four factors move real money here. First, builder variance: the same street can have homes from two different builders at different finish standards — compare warranty terms and standard-versus-upgrade packages before signing. Second, school zones: attendance boundaries shift as CCSD adds campuses, so verify the zone for your specific address. Third, HOA layers: dues, reserves, and inclusions vary by sub-association — pull the full resale package. Fourth, ZIP split: listings sit across 89149 and 89166; search both codes to see full inventory.
What down payment do I need to buy in Centennial Hills North?
Most Centennial Hills North buyers put down 3.5% to 20%. At the $400,000 entry point, FHA requires $14,000 down; conventional 5% down is $20,000. Many builders offer closing-cost incentives when you use their preferred lender — worth asking, but compare the rate independently. VA loans allow 0% down for eligible veterans. First-time buyers should explore Nevada Housing Division assistance programs, which can layer on top of FHA or conventional financing to reduce the cash-to-close.
Are there new-construction incentives in Centennial Hills North?
Yes — builders in active phases often offer closing-cost credits, rate buydowns, appliance packages, and design-center upgrade allowances to move inventory. Incentives change monthly and vary by builder phase and lot position. Bring a Nevada Real Estate Group buyer's agent to every builder sales office — representation costs you nothing as a buyer, and an agent protects your interests when reviewing contracts, contingency deadlines, and warranty terms that builder reps cannot advise on.
How long does it take to close on a Centennial Hills North home?
Resale purchases typically close in 30 to 45 days through Nevada's escrow-based system. New-construction timelines vary from immediate move-in on quick-move-in inventory to six to twelve months for to-be-built homes, depending on the builder and phase. Request the HOA resale package on day one of escrow so dues and reserve data clear before contingency deadlines. Cash purchases can close in as few as 10 to 14 days on resale homes.

Centennial Hills North is the newer northern section of the broader Centennial Hills area — built primarily from 2015 onward, north of the 215 Beltway.

Address yourself to Nevada Real Estate Group for clarification on which section a specific listing occupies.
How old are homes in Centennial Hills North?
Most homes in Centennial Hills North date from 2015 onward — roughly 8–11 years old as of 2026 — with some sections still actively building.
