SAFETY & CRIME
Is Highland Park Safe?
Direct Answer
Highland Park is a central Las Vegas urban neighborhood — safety varies block by block rather than uniformly. Las Vegas overall tracks below national violent-crime averages per FBI UCR comparisons. Review LVMPD precinct-level data for your target streets, visit at different times of day, and speak with neighbors before offering.
- Las Vegas violent crime vs national averageFBI Uniform Crime Reporting
- Central Las Vegas ZIP — urban established areaCommunity records
- Homeownership rate in the ZIP 89102 corridorCommunity records / demographic estimates
- Monthly HOA range — low overhead, no gated infrastructureCommunity records
What Buyers Should Know
Central Las Vegas ZIP 89102 is an established residential corridor mixed with commercial streets. Crime patterns in urban central ZIPs differ from gated suburban communities: there is no perimeter control, and arterial roads that run through the area carry more foot and vehicle traffic than purely residential streets. Block-level differences are meaningful — a quiet interior residential street reads very differently from a block adjacent to a commercial strip.
For buyers wanting site-specific intelligence, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department publishes precinct-level crime data by ZIP and area command. The Highland Park corridor falls within LVMPD coverage; requesting recent incident summaries for your specific target blocks is standard due diligence in an established urban neighborhood purchase. Nevada Real Estate Group recommends reviewing that data alongside the standard home inspection.
The 55-percent homeownership rate in the ZIP 89102 corridor reflects a stable mix of long-term owner-occupants alongside renters — a profile consistent with established central Las Vegas neighborhoods. Long-tenure owners who invest in maintenance and landscaping are a positive safety signal; high investor-ownership concentrations on specific streets can cut both ways.

LIVABILITY REPORT CARD
How Does Highland Park Score for Livability?
Highland Park earns top marks for location value and freeway access, with honest trade-offs on school ratings and housing-stock vintage. Below is our category-by-category report card — the same six factors our agents walk through with every central Las Vegas buyer before a first Highland Park tour.
Grade B: Safety
Central urban neighborhood — safety varies block by block. Las Vegas overall tracks below national violent-crime averages per FBI UCR; check LVMPD precinct data for your specific streets before offering.
Grade B-: Schools
Nearby CCSD campuses rate 5 to 6 out of 10 on GreatSchools; private options Bishop Gorman (A+) and The Meadows School (A+) are reachable for families who factor private tuition into the decision.
Grade A: Cost of Living
One of the best cost-to-location ratios in Las Vegas: $280K-$550K single-family homes, $0-$100 monthly HOA, Nevada zero income tax, and a 3-percent property-tax cap under NRS 361.471.
Grade A-: Amenities
Sahara Avenue retail and dining within minutes, Downtown Las Vegas 10 minutes away, Sunset Park a manageable drive — the urban amenity footprint of a central ZIP without the density of a downtown address.
Grade B+: Outdoor Access
Sunset Park's 324 acres and Floyd Lamb Park's 680 acres are the primary recreational anchors — both a reasonable drive. No immediate trail-system access like Summerlin, but Las Vegas's freeway network makes regional parks accessible.
Grade A: Commute
Highland Park's strongest card: 10 to 20 minutes to the Strip, 10 minutes to Downtown Las Vegas, 15 to 25 minutes to the airport — shorter commutes than similarly priced homes in the outer suburbs.
Source: Compiled from GreatSchools.org, FBI UCR, BLS, and Walk Score. Methodology: 6 weighted categories on a 4.0-equivalent scale. Last refreshed June 2026.
Quick Answer
Is Highland Park a good place to live in Las Vegas?
Highland Park works well for buyers who value central location over gated amenities. The ZIP 89102 position delivers the Strip under 20 minutes, Downtown Las Vegas in 10, and I-15 and US-95 at the doorstep — all at prices from $280,000 to $550,000 with HOA fees from $0 to $100 per month. Honest trade-offs: school ratings average 5 to 6 out of 10, housing vintage varies, and safety requires block-level research. Nevada's zero state income tax and 3-percent property-tax cap sweeten the carrying costs for every Highland Park buyer.

POPULATION & GROWTH
How Fast Is the Highland Park Area Growing?
Highland Park itself is a built-out neighborhood in an established ZIP — new supply does not add significantly to the central Las Vegas corridor. Its parent city has grown by roughly 120,000 people since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, and that growth sustains demand for central-city housing that established neighborhoods like Highland Park supply. Metro expansion pushes price appreciation into central ZIPs as outer-ring land fills and commute times lengthen.

~700,000Las Vegas city projected, 2030
Las Vegas city population trajectory, 2010–2030 (projected)
Inside Highland Park, growth means sustained demand in a supply-constrained central corridor. As Las Vegas expands outward, the time and cost advantage of a central-city address compounds — buyers who would tolerate a long outer-ring commute at 2010 prices reconsider when the outer suburbs price up too. That dynamic supports the value story for established central ZIPs like 89102 over a long hold.

WHY HIGHLAND PARK
Why Does Highland Park Stand Apart From Its Peers?
Highland Park's case is a straightforward location-value equation: central Las Vegas infrastructure at prices below the valley median, with near-zero HOA overhead. The five advantages below are each tied to a verifiable source — Nevada Revised Statutes, Las Vegas REALTORS, the Census, FBI crime data, and the Clark County Assessor — so you can check every claim.
- Community records / LVR
Central location at value pricing
Strip in 10 to 20 minutes, Downtown Las Vegas in 10 minutes, airport in 15 to 25 minutes — all from a $280,000 to $550,000 single-family home. No other price tier in this ZIP puts you closer to Las Vegas employment centers.
- Community records
Near-zero HOA overhead
HOA fees run $0 to $100 per month across Highland Park — one of the leanest HOA profiles in the Las Vegas Valley, keeping monthly carrying costs far below gated suburban communities at similar price points.
- Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471
Nevada zero income tax and 3-percent cap
No state income tax and a 3-percent annual cap on primary-residence property-tax increases under NRS 361.471 make Highland Park's total cost of ownership predictably lower than comparable urban neighborhoods in California or the Pacific Northwest.
- Community records
Established infrastructure
Built-out streets, mature trees, poured sidewalks, and decades of utility service — the physical infrastructure of an established neighborhood that new outer-ring developments are still installing.

Moving to Highland Park
Should I Move to Highland Park in Las Vegas?
Out-of-state buyers increasingly discover that central Las Vegas delivers urban convenience at a fraction of comparable coastal city costs. Nevada charges no state income tax — California's top rate is 13.3% per the Franchise Tax Board — and Highland Park's $280K-$550K price range puts a single-family home within reach of buyers priced out of coastal urban neighborhoods entirely.
Why Value-Conscious Buyers Are Choosing Highland Park
The math is straightforward: Highland Park delivers central Las Vegas infrastructure — Strip access in under 20 minutes, I-15 and US-95 at the doorstep, established schools nearby — at prices from $280,000 to $550,000 with HOA fees of $0 to $100 per month. Buyers from Los Angeles, the Bay Area, and Pacific Northwest cities often find that a home they could not afford in their origin market is attainable in Highland Park's ZIP 89102 corridor without sacrificing urban accessibility.
At a $400,000 budget, coastal California buyers are renting, not owning. That same budget in Highland Park buys a single-family home with established infrastructure, Strip proximity under 20 minutes, and freeway access to every major Las Vegas employment corridor — with Nevada's zero income tax, a property-tax cap at 3 percent annual growth, and I-15 connecting the entire valley from the front door.
According to Las Vegas REALTORS, the median list price across ZIP 89102 is $399,000. Per the Clark County Assessor, effective property-tax rates run roughly 0.5 to 0.75 percent of assessed value. FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data places Las Vegas below national violent-crime averages overall, and GreatSchools lists multiple school options in the area for comparison before choosing an address.
Highland Park's economic engine is Las Vegas itself — the Strip resort corridor about 10 to 20 minutes away is the valley's largest employment sector, and the healthcare, logistics, and financial-services industries that serve it feed steady demand into central ZIP 89102. Buyers relocating for Strip or Downtown Las Vegas employment find the commute from Highland Park among the shortest available in the single-family market.
Cost of Living Snapshot — Highland Park, NV vs. Los Angeles, CA
Day-to-day costs run meaningfully lower than coastal California across housing, taxes, and transportation. Nevada has no state income tax and no personal property tax on vehicles beyond registration. The biggest flip is housing: a central-city single-family home that costs $400,000 in Highland Park would require $1.2 million or more in a comparable Los Angeles urban neighborhood.
| Metric | Highland Park, NV | Los Angeles, CA |
|---|---|---|
| State Income Tax | None | Up to 13.3% |
| Single-Family Entry Point | $280K (Highland Park) | $900K+ typical |
| Effective Property Tax Rate | ~0.5%–0.75% | ~1.1% on new purchases |
| HOA Monthly | $0–$100 | $200–$600+ typical |

Planning a relocation to central Las Vegas? Our team knows Highland Park block by block — which streets offer the best value, which schools to verify, and how to navigate Nevada's 30-to-45-day escrow timeline without surprises.
Start Your Highland Park Home SearchRELOCATION TIMELINE
How to Relocate to Highland Park in 8 Steps
From first research to keys-in-hand, here's the 8-to-12-week timeline most Highland Park 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.
Set a budget and target price band
Decide which Highland Park tier fits your plan: under $350,000 for starter or investor entry, $350,000–$450,000 for the median range, or $450,000–$550,000 for updated larger homes. Each band carries different condition profiles — older homes at lower prices, recently renovated at the top.
Get pre-approved — FHA or conventional
Most Highland Park purchases are FHA or conventional financing. FHA requires 3.5 percent down with a 580-plus credit score. Conventional buyers at 20 percent down avoid PMI. Get fully underwritten before touring — pre-qualified letters alone lose to pre-approved buyers in a 21-day-median market.
Hire a central Las Vegas specialist
Block-level value differences, school-zone verification, and inspection priorities for older housing stock all vary significantly in ZIP 89102. An agent who knows the central corridor saves real money on the offer and avoids surprise renovation costs.
Tour multiple homes and blocks
No gate access coordination required in Highland Park — but drive specific target streets at different times of day. Open-access neighborhoods require your own observation of block character, pedestrian activity, and commercial adjacency before committing.
Write and negotiate the offer
Well-priced move-in-ready homes in the $300,000–$400,000 range attract competing offers quickly. Condition-challenged or overpriced properties sit. Our team pulls house-level comps for every offer to ensure you price the specific home accurately, not just the ZIP median.
Inspection and due diligence
Older central Las Vegas housing requires a thorough inspection: roofing, HVAC, electrical panels, plumbing, and foundation are all variable. Budget repair credit negotiation into your escrow timeline and set realistic repair-cost assumptions before releasing inspection contingencies.
Clear conditions and fund
Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys — expect 30 to 45 days from accepted offer. HOA resale packages (if any HOA applies) add a few days. Lender conditions for FHA and conventional loans typically clear in the final week before funding.
Close, move, and register
Transfer utilities (NV Energy, Southwest Gas, City of Las Vegas water), change your address with USPS and financial institutions, then handle the Nevada DMV — driver's license within 30 days of establishing residency, vehicle registration within 60.

The lean HOA profile keeps the monthly gap between owning and renting narrower here than in HOA-heavy communities.

Highland Park FAQ — 18 Answers
What Do Highland Park Buyers Most Frequently Ask?
Most AskedWhat is the median home price in Highland Park?
Homes in Highland Park typically list from about $280,000 for smaller starter homes to $550,000 for updated larger residences.

HOA fees run $0 to $100 per month across the area — leaner carrying costs than most Las Vegas neighborhoods at a similar central location.
Is Highland Park a good neighborhood to live in?
Highland Park fits buyers who want established Las Vegas infrastructure — mature trees, poured concrete, and built-out streets — at a price below the valley median. The ZIP 89102 location delivers genuine centrality: 10 to 20 minutes to the Strip, 15 to 25 minutes to Harry Reid International Airport via I-15 and I-215. Trade-offs are the mixed housing-stock vintage and mid-range school ratings. For value buyers prioritizing location over amenities, Highland Park belongs on the shortlist.
What ZIP code is Highland Park in?
Highland Park is in ZIP 89102, central Las Vegas. Drive times from the neighborhood run approximately 10 to 20 minutes to the Strip, 15 to 25 minutes to Harry Reid International Airport via I-15 and I-215, 15 to 30 minutes to Summerlin, and 20 to 30 minutes to Henderson via I-515. I-15 and US-95 access keeps every major employment corridor reachable without a long commute, a competitive advantage over similarly priced homes in the outer suburbs.
What type of homes are for sale in Highland Park?
Highland Park features single-family homes built across several decades, which means varied sizes, floor plans, and conditions rather than a uniform production look. Buyers find bungalows, ranch-style homes, and larger two-story residences mixed across the area. That variety creates opportunity: condition, renovations, and lot position drive individual prices more than neighborhood averages do, so buyers who tour multiple homes and negotiate on specifics typically find the best value.
What schools serve Highland Park?
Clark County School District serves Highland Park, with nearby public campuses including Hyde Park Middle School and John C. Fremont Middle School (both 5/10 on GreatSchools) and Valley High School (6/10). Private options include Bishop Gorman High School and The Meadows School (both A+ rated), and Faith Lutheran Middle and High School (A rated). Charter choices include Explore Knowledge Academy (7/10) and Nevada State High School. Verify the current attendance zone for your specific address with CCSD before writing an offer.
Is Highland Park safe?
Highland Park sits in central Las Vegas — an established urban neighborhood rather than a suburban gated community, so safety varies block by block. Las Vegas overall tracks below national violent-crime averages in FBI Uniform Crime Reporting comparisons. Buyers should review Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department precinct-level data for the specific streets they are considering, visit at different times of day, and talk to neighbors. The central ZIP 89102 area mixes residential blocks with commercial corridors.
Are there HOA fees in Highland Park?
HOA fees across Highland Park run $0 to $100 per month, and many properties carry no HOA at all. This is one of the most buyer-friendly carrying-cost profiles in the Las Vegas Valley — especially when paired with Nevada's zero state income tax and effective property-tax rates near 0.5 to 0.75 percent of assessed value per the Clark County Assessor. Verify the exact HOA status for any specific property in escrow; dues, if any, and CC&R restrictions vary parcel by parcel.
How does Highland Park compare to Spring Valley?
Both are established non-gated Las Vegas neighborhoods in a similar price band, but Highland Park in ZIP 89102 sits closer to the urban core — 10 to 20 minutes to the Strip versus Spring Valley's typically 15 to 25 minutes. Spring Valley tends to offer newer housing stock and quieter suburban streets; Highland Park delivers more centrality and a broader variety of home styles at comparable or lower prices. Your preference for urban convenience versus suburban calm is the deciding factor.
What are drive times from Highland Park?
From Highland Park: Strip in roughly 10 to 20 minutes via surface streets or I-15; Harry Reid International Airport in 15 to 25 minutes via I-15 south to I-215; Summerlin in 15 to 30 minutes via Summerlin Parkway or I-215; Henderson in 20 to 30 minutes via I-515 or I-215. US-95 and I-15 intersect near the neighborhood, putting Downtown Las Vegas about 10 minutes north. Actual times depend on traffic; drive your specific commute during peak hours before committing.
What parks are near Highland Park?
Several large City of Las Vegas parks serve the Highland Park area. Sunset Park, one of the valley's most popular multi-use parks, sits about 15 minutes southeast with 324 acres of walking trails, lakes, disc golf, sports fields, and picnic areas. Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs offers 680 acres of historic ranch landscape, lakes, trails, and wildlife viewing. Closer in, various neighborhood parks dot the central ZIP 89102 corridor for daily walks and recreation.
Is Highland Park a good investment property?
Highland Park offers the value formula investors look for in established Las Vegas neighborhoods: a $280,000 to $550,000 entry point, central location with Strip proximity, and near-zero HOA drag at $0 to $100 per month. Nevada ownership costs — no state income tax and effective property taxes around 0.5 to 0.75 percent — support long-term hold strategies. Performance varies street by street in established areas, so underwrite individual properties rather than relying on neighborhood averages alone.
What does $400,000 buy in Highland Park?
At the ZIP 89102 median of roughly $399,000, buyers typically find a well-maintained single-family home with three or four bedrooms and a two-car garage. Updated kitchens and bathrooms push toward the top of the range; original 1970s-era finishes sit at the lower end. The central location is what the price buys as much as the square footage — Strip access in under 20 minutes, I-15 and US-95 immediately accessible, and established neighborhood infrastructure that new-construction suburbs are still building.
What property taxes are like in Highland Park?
Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs approximately 0.5 to 0.75 percent of assessed value per the Clark County Assessor, and the state caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3 percent under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471. On a $400,000 purchase, plan for roughly $2,000 to $3,000 annually. One important note: long-held homes often carry abated tax bills — the assessed value resets to current market value after sale, so verify the post-sale figure with the Assessor before building your ownership-cost budget.
How long does it take to close on a Highland Park home?
Most Highland Park purchases close in 30 to 45 days from accepted offer — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash purchases can close in 10 to 14 days. Conventional buyers should allow full time for inspection scheduling and any repair negotiations given the varied vintage of central Las Vegas housing stock. Properties with no HOA skip the resale-package step, but title, utility-transfer, and lender timelines still apply.
What should I know before buying in Highland Park?
Four factors matter most in Highland Park. First, vintage condition: single-family homes built across multiple decades means systems like roofing, plumbing, and HVAC vary widely — budget a thorough inspection. Second, block-level variation: value and character differ significantly street by street; tour broadly before offering. Third, tax resets: long-held homes re-assess to current market value after sale. Fourth, school zones: verify CCSD assignments for your specific address, since zone boundaries shift and nearby charter options may serve you better.
What down payment do you need to buy in Highland Park?
At the $280,000 to $550,000 price range, conventional buyers typically put down 3 to 20 percent. FHA loans require just 3.5 percent down with a 580-plus credit score — $9,800 on a $280,000 purchase. VA loans allow zero down for eligible veterans with full entitlement. At the $399,000 median, 5 percent is $19,950 and 20 percent is $79,800. Most purchases in this price band clear conforming-loan limits, so standard Fannie Mae or FHA financing applies without jumbo requirements.
What is the rental market like in Highland Park?
Single-family homes in the ZIP 89102 corridor typically rent for $1,600 to $2,400 per month depending on size, condition, and recent updates. Central Las Vegas location supports steady tenant demand from service-sector workers, healthcare employees, and young professionals. Vacancy rates in established central neighborhoods trend lower than outer-ring developments. Short-term rentals require City of Las Vegas licensing — confirm current rules before underwriting nightly income on any Highland Park property.
How competitive is the Highland Park market right now?
ZIP 89102 carried 111 active listings in June 2026 per Las Vegas REALTORS data, with a 21-day median from list to accepted offer. That pace is brisk for central Las Vegas — well-priced, move-in-ready homes draw competing offers quickly. Buyers should be pre-approved and ready to move; overpriced or condition-challenged homes sit longer. Nevada Real Estate Group tracks new listings daily and can alert you within hours of a Highland Park home hitting the MLS.

Does Highland Park have an HOA?
Most properties in Highland Park carry no HOA or a minimal fee of $0 to $100 per month. This is one of the leanest HOA profiles in the Las Vegas Valley. There is no master-planned community association and no guard-gate infrastructure — buyers get full ownership flexibility without sub-association governance overhead. Verify the exact HOA status for any specific parcel in escrow.
How old are homes in Highland Park?
Homes in Highland Park were built across multiple decades — the neighborhood developed over many years rather than in a single master-plan build cycle. That means buyers encounter a range of vintages from mid-century construction to 1980s and 1990s builds. Age drives inspection priorities: older homes require closer review of roofing, electrical panels, plumbing, and HVAC systems.
Is Highland Park walkable?
Highland Park is more walkable than most Las Vegas suburbs — central ZIP 89102 location means retail, restaurants, and services are accessible along nearby arterials like Sahara Avenue. Sidewalks are established. Full walkability for daily errands depends on the specific block and destination; the neighborhood is more urban-accessible than car-dependent outer-ring suburbs but still benefits from a vehicle for most residents.
What grocery stores are near Highland Park?
Multiple grocery options are within a short drive of Highland Park, including major chains along the Sahara Avenue and Flamingo Road corridors. The central Las Vegas ZIP 89102 position puts residents closer to more grocery options than most suburban addresses at a comparable price point — no long suburban drive to the nearest full-service grocery store.
How far is Highland Park from the Las Vegas Arts District?
The Las Vegas Arts District — the 18b neighborhood with galleries, restaurants, and the monthly First Friday art walk — is approximately 10 minutes south via surface streets from Highland Park. It is one of the closest established single-family neighborhoods to the Arts District, making Highland Park a natural fit for buyers who value cultural access alongside residential stability.
Is Highland Park a good place to invest?
The fundamentals favor long-term investors: below-valley-median entry from $280,000, central location with Strip proximity, minimal HOA overhead, and steady rental demand from the service-sector and healthcare workforce. Returns depend on individual property condition and purchase price rather than neighborhood averages — underwrite each property independently.
