STAY AHEAD OF THE MARKET
Custom alerts by sub-area, golf frontage, price, and beds — no spam, unsubscribe anytime. With a 27-day median market pace and limited guard-gated golf inventory, well-priced Rhodes Ranch South homes go under contract before many buyers ever schedule a tour. Alert subscribers see new listings within hours of hitting the MLS, not after word spreads at the gate.
Before choosing a home, request address-specific school assignments for the intended school year from the district. Confirm grade levels, program eligibility, enrollment requirements and any boundary changes. Use the exact property address, including any unit number, and ask the district to confirm the assignment before making a purchase decision.

CRIME DATA
Review reports from the law-enforcement agency serving the address. Check the reporting period, area covered, offense definitions and completeness before comparing locations. When requesting local information, provide the property address and ask which agency and geographic boundary each report represents, along with any known reporting gaps.
The FBI publishes crime and law-enforcement statistics through its Crime Data Explorer. Its guidance cautions against using crime totals alone to rank communities: reporting practices and local conditions affect comparisons.
A citywide statistic does not establish conditions at a particular home. Ask the local agency about current reports for the area and gaps in the available data. Missing records do not mean zero crime, and a gated entrance does not establish a safety rating.

Rhodes Ranch South delivers guard-gated golf at an accessible price: 2,500-plus homes, 24-hour staffed security, a Ted Robinson championship course, and resort pools in southwest Las Vegas — 15 minutes from the Strip. City of Las Vegas handles municipal services. Nevada's zero income tax keeps carrying costs competitive.
Rhodes Ranch South is the newer-construction southern section of Rhodes Ranch — the guard-gated golf community in southwest Las Vegas known for delivering resort amenities and a Ted Robinson championship golf course at a price point accessible to first-move-up and family buyers, with homes from $350,000 inside a 24-hour-staffed gate.
It fits families wanting guard-gated security and resort amenity access at an accessible price, professionals commuting to the Strip corridor via I-215, California relocators trading state income tax for golf-community living, move-up buyers stepping into their first gated address, and investors targeting the stable rental demand in southwest Las Vegas.
Mornings run the community trail system or play the Ted Robinson course before work, afternoons use the resort pool or fitness center, evenings return through the 24-hour-staffed gate to a quiet interior street — with Mountains Edge shopping ten minutes west and the Strip fifteen minutes via I-215 when the occasion calls for it.
Rhodes Ranch South anchors the southern section of the Rhodes Ranch guard-gated community in southwest Las Vegas, south of Russell Road near Durango Drive. About 350 acres total across the full Rhodes Ranch development. Roughly 12–15 miles from the Strip via I-215.
Quick Answer
Yes — by the guard-gated golf value measure, Rhodes Ranch South is one of southwest Las Vegas's most compelling addresses. It pairs 24-hour staffed security, a Ted Robinson championship golf course, resort pools and fitness, and a 15-minute Strip commute from $350,000. The honest trade-offs: moderate CCSD school ratings (supplemented by strong nearby charter and private options), a 20-minute airport commute, and a location that is 15 minutes further from Summerlin's retail core than northwest Las Vegas addresses. Nevada's zero state income tax sweetens every relocation to Rhodes Ranch.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Las Vegas city — the municipality containing Rhodes Ranch South — the parent city holds 656,274 residents with a median household income of $66,820. Community records place Rhodes Ranch South itself at approximately 8,000-plus residents across 2,500-plus households, with an average household income estimated around $80,000 and a 68% homeownership rate.
The Census does not break Rhodes Ranch South out as its own place, so the figures below are Las Vegas citywide — presented honestly as the statistical backdrop. Inside the community, our closing data shows a blend of young families moving up from non-gated southwest Las Vegas, professionals with Strip-corridor careers who value the I-215 commute, California relocators swapping state income tax for guard-gated golf living, and military families from Nellis Air Force Base seeking established community infrastructure.

POPULATION & GROWTH
Rhodes Ranch South is substantially built out — the 2,500-plus-home community completed most of its development in the early 2000s — while its parent city and the broader southwest Las Vegas corridor continue adding residents. Las Vegas has grown by roughly 120,000 people since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, and the southwest quadrant has captured a disproportionate share of that growth, keeping demand pressure on established guard-gated communities like Rhodes Ranch South.
Inside Rhodes Ranch South, growth means turnover and resale competition, not expansion: the community is substantially built out, so every southwest Las Vegas buyer seeking guard-gated golf living competes for a finite supply. That demand-versus-capped-inventory dynamic is the stability argument of an established guard-gated community that newer open-street developments cannot replicate.

Build a budget around the particular home and your circumstances. Obtain current financing terms, property records and service quotes before comparing the cost of a move. A community average cannot establish your tax bill, insurance premium, association charges or savings.
Ask a tax adviser to review income sources, residency dates and any continuing connections to another state. California-source income can remain taxable after a move; the Franchise Tax Board explains part-year and nonresident rules. A headline tax-rate comparison does not calculate your savings.
Get the exact parcel's current tax bill and assessment record from its county. Confirm the property's abatement status and any effect of new construction, a change in use or your circumstances with the assessor. Do not apply a community-wide percentage to a purchase price or assume a tax cap is automatic.
Use lender estimates, insurance quotes, association documents and utility information for the exact address. Include maintenance, moving expenses and any special assessments in the comparison. Renting and buying involve different costs and obligations; future equity or resale gains are not assured.
Check school assignments for the enrollment year and ask about choice-program applications. Investigate parcel-specific hazards and permitted uses with the responsible agencies. Review travel routes and the features that matter to you instead of relying on a broad safety score or a neighborhood recommendation based on household type.
Discuss the homes, budget and timing you want to evaluate with the team.

Compare homes using your budget, accessibility needs, desired features and travel routes. Evaluate the particular property and surroundings using your own priorities; a neighborhood label does not establish its suitability.
Ask a lender for terms based on your circumstances and the property. Obtain the parcel tax record, insurance quotes, association charges and other recurring costs; a community-wide estimate cannot establish your payment or approval.
Discuss services, compensation, communication and touring arrangements with the agent. Confirm the details in the applicable agreement before relying on a promised service or access to a property.
Check school assignments with the district for the enrollment year and ask about separate program applications. Review parcel-specific flood, wildfire, utility, zoning and intended-use questions with the relevant agencies and service providers.
Discuss price, deposit, contingencies and the proposed schedule with your agent and lender. The signed contract determines the transaction deadlines; market averages do not promise when an offer will be accepted or a purchase will close.
Arrange appropriate inspections and review disclosures, title information, association documents and financing conditions. Investigate unresolved findings with the relevant specialist before the contractual decision deadlines.
Verify which utilities serve the address, what deposits or appointments are required, and when service can begin. Coordinate access and the moving date with the agreed possession terms and any building or association requirements.

Build a property-specific budget using a lender quote, the parcel tax estimate, insurance quotes and association documents. The starting amounts below are editable illustrations, not current local rates or verified fees. Compare the result with your Loan Estimate, and budget separately for maintenance, utilities and closing costs.
Inputs are assumptions, not a loan offer, insurance quote or parcel tax calculation. This simplified fixed-rate example applies the selected PMI rate below 20% down; actual mortgage-insurance eligibility, cost and cancellation depend on the loan. Maintenance, utilities, closing costs and special assessments are additional. Review the CFPB housing budget guide and confirm amounts with the relevant providers.
BUYING AND RENTING
Compare actual homes that meet the same needs over your expected time in the area. A purchase price and an advertised rent alone do not establish which option costs less. Use current quotes and separate monthly cash flow, upfront cash, and the amount you might recover when moving.
Start with the down payment, lender and closing charges, and any immediate repairs. Add principal and interest, property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance where applicable, association dues, utilities and ongoing maintenance. Identify expenses paid outside escrow so they are included in your household budget.
For a later sale, model the remaining loan balance and selling expenses. Appreciation is uncertain; compare unchanged-price and lower-price cases as well as any growth assumption. Principal repayment builds an ownership interest, but that does not guarantee a profit or make every cash payment recoverable.
Use an actual lease offer and confirm the term, deposit, renewal provisions, parking, pet charges, utilities and renter's insurance. Record which maintenance services are included and any costs or restrictions associated with an early move. An advertised starting rent may not include every required charge.
Keep the comparison consistent: use the same time period, household needs and moving assumptions. Include the cash that remains available when a down payment is not used, without assuming a guaranteed investment return. Your need for flexibility and responsibility for repairs also matter alongside the financial figures.
There is no verified community-wide holding period or five-year equity gain shown here. Ask your lender to explain financing assumptions and have a tax professional assess any claimed tax benefit for your circumstances. Keep a copy of the quotes and dates so you can update the comparison before making an offer.
PROPERTY-SPECIFIC ASSOCIATION COSTS
A community name does not establish a property's current dues or all the associations that govern it. Obtain the applicable resale package, budget and governing documents for the exact address. Confirm the effective date and payment frequency of each fee with the association or its manager.
Identify master and sub-association dues separately. Check whether utilities, exterior maintenance, insurance, amenities or club access are included, optional or billed separately. A listing's monthly figure may omit a quarterly or annual charge, and an advertised amenity does not establish membership rights.
Ask about transfer, document, capital-contribution and other transaction fees, as well as approved or proposed assessments. Confirm who pays each item under the contract. Review available reserve and budget information; historical dues are not a guarantee of future charges.
Verify the actual rules for leasing, pets, parking, property changes and amenity access. Age restrictions and gate staffing require their own current documentation. Do not assume neighboring subdivisions or similarly named communities have identical rules, services or fees.
COMMUTE & TRANSPORTATION
I-215 connects Rhodes Ranch South to the Strip in 15 minutes; Blue Diamond Road handles southwest corridor errands without a freeway. Mean Las Vegas commutes run near 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data — residents commuting to southwest Las Vegas employers typically run well under that.

Quick Answer
Most purchases close in 30 to 45 days — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 10 to 14 days. Request the HOA resale package on day one of contract so dues, reserves, and CC&Rs arrive before inspection contingency deadlines. Coordinate gate-access transfer with the HOA the week you fund.
Quick Answer
Most buyers put down 5 to 20 percent. At $450,000, a 5 percent down payment is $22,500 and 20 percent is $90,000. FHA loans allow 3.5 percent down for eligible buyers, and VA loans allow zero down for qualifying veterans with full entitlement. Confirm HOA documentation requirements with your lender early — guard-gated community HOA certifications add a few days to the lender's timeline.
Rhodes Ranch South FAQ — 18 Answers
Homes in Rhodes Ranch South run roughly $350,000 for compact entry-level floor plans to $600,000 for larger detached homes on premium lots, with the most active range at $400,000 to $500,000. Floor plans span approximately 1,400 to 3,000 square feet. The southern phases feature the community's newer, more contemporary designs with updated finishes compared to the original northern sections of the broader Rhodes Ranch master community.
Yes. All of Rhodes Ranch — including the southern section — operates behind 24-hour staffed guard gates with controlled vehicle access. The HOA fee of $125 to $250 monthly funds gate staffing, security patrols, and community amenities. Rhodes Ranch South is one of the most affordable guard-gated communities in the Las Vegas Valley, making staffed-gate living accessible at a price point well below the valley's premium gated addresses.
Rhodes Ranch Golf Club is an 18-hole championship course designed by Ted Robinson that winds through the entire community, including the southern section. Fairways and water features add green space, views, and appraised value to golf-adjacent lots. The course is open to both residents and the public, so you gain the lifestyle benefit without a mandatory club membership. Golf-frontage lots command meaningful premiums within the $350,000 to $600,000 price range — flag that preference early so listings can be targeted accordingly.
Rhodes Ranch South sits entirely within ZIP 89148 in southwest Las Vegas, south of Russell Road near Durango Drive. The single-ZIP footprint simplifies insurance rating, utility setup, and initial school-zone research. That said, CCSD school assignments still vary by address within the community — always verify the zoned campus for any specific home you shortlist before making an offer, as zones can shift between academic years.
Residents access resort-style community pools, a fitness center, tennis courts, basketball courts, walking trails throughout the guard-gated perimeter, a homeowners' clubhouse available for private events, and the Ted Robinson championship golf course threading the community. According to community records, it is a country-club-caliber lifestyle funded through HOA dues of $125 to $250 monthly — an efficient fee structure for what the amenity package delivers at this price point.
HOA dues typically run $125 to $250 per month, covering 24-hour guard gate staffing, security patrols, community pool maintenance, fitness center access, common-area upkeep, and trail maintenance throughout the community. For a staffed-gate golf community in southwest Las Vegas, that is among the valley's more efficient fee structures. Request the resale package early in escrow to confirm the exact sub-association fee, reserve fund status, and any pending special assessments for your target address.
Clark County School District zones this area to Elbert Edwards Elementary (6/10 per GreatSchools), Lawrence and Heidi Canarelli Middle School (6/10), and Sierra Vista High School (5/10). Charter options within a reasonable drive include Doral Academy of Nevada (9/10) and Somerset Academy (8/10). Private standouts nearby include Bishop Gorman High School (A+) and Pinecrest Academy of Nevada (A). Verify the zoned campus for each address before shortlisting homes, and build your school plan alongside the home search.
Approximately 15 minutes via I-215 to I-15, with Harry Reid International Airport about 20 minutes by the same route. Mountains Edge shopping along Blue Diamond Road is roughly 10 minutes west, and Southern Highlands commercial corridors are about 10 minutes via South Las Vegas Boulevard. That southwest positioning puts Strip-corridor employment within a comfortable commute while keeping everyday retail within 10 minutes of the community.
Residents use transponders or access codes for automatic entry. Guests must be pre-approved by the homeowner or called in at the gatehouse, and delivery drivers and vendors follow the community's access policy. The gates are staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with security patrols supplementing gatehouse coverage. The process becomes routine within the first week of residency, and meaningfully limits the opportunistic traffic that drives property crime in open-street neighborhoods.
Yes — prospective buyers can tour Rhodes Ranch South with a licensed real estate agent who coordinates gate entry in advance. Unaccompanied walk-up visitors are not admitted through the 24-hour staffed gate. Nevada Real Estate Group handles all gate-access coordination for showings so the process adds no friction to your home search. Call (702) 637-1759 and we will schedule a tour of current inventory across the community's six internal sub-areas.
The community's security program includes a 24-hour staffed guard gate with controlled vehicle access, security patrols throughout the community, and perimeter walls bordering the development. The layered approach — gatehouse check, patrol circuits, and physical perimeter — is central to why Rhodes Ranch has maintained a loyal resident base and consistent property values since 2001. Confirm current patrol schedules and emergency-response protocols with the association governing documents during the escrow resale-package review.
Mountains Edge is a large non-gated master-planned community adjacent to Rhodes Ranch with 12,000-plus homes, broader commercial development, and pricing from $350,000 — similar entry point but no guard gate, no golf course, and no resort pool complex. Rhodes Ranch South adds the 24-hour staffed gate, Ted Robinson golf course, and resort amenities for roughly the same price tier. Buyers who prioritize controlled access and community amenities over lot variety typically prefer Rhodes Ranch; those who want more housing choice and commercial convenience often lean Mountains Edge.
The community attracts a strong family demographic. The guard-gated perimeter limits through-traffic on interior streets, resort pools and walking trails are kid-friendly, the HOA-managed common areas stay well-maintained, and the neighborhood has been an established community since 2001. School ratings in the CCSD zone are moderate, which leads many families to supplement with nearby charter options like Doral Academy (9/10) or Somerset Academy (8/10). Tour the community park and pool area when you visit — the resident culture is family-oriented and engaged.
Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5 to 0.7 percent of assessed value per the Clark County Assessor, and Nevada law caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3 percent under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471. On a $450,000 purchase, plan roughly $2,250 to $3,150 annually. Important note: long-held homes in Rhodes Ranch South often carry abated tax bills — assessed value resets to current market value after sale, so always verify the post-sale tax figure with the Assessor before finalizing your budget.
Four factors move real money in Rhodes Ranch South. First, lot position: golf-frontage lots command premiums and sell faster. Second, construction vintage: the 2001 original phases and newer southern phases differ in floor-plan layouts and finish standards — view both before deciding. Third, HOA structure: request dues, reserves, and CC&Rs on day one of escrow. Fourth, tax resets: assessed values re-base to current market after any sale, so verify that number with the Clark County Assessor before your contingency deadlines.
Most buyers in the $350,000 to $600,000 range put down 5 to 20 percent. At $450,000, a 5 percent down payment is $22,500 and a 20 percent down payment is $90,000. FHA loans allow 3.5 percent down for eligible buyers, and VA loans allow zero down for qualifying veterans with full entitlement. Confirm financing eligibility before touring — our team can refer you to lenders experienced with the HOA documentation requirements for guard-gated communities.
At the $450,000 median with 10 percent down at current rates, plan roughly $3,100 to $3,400 monthly for principal, interest, property tax, homeowners insurance, and the $125 to $250 HOA fee combined. The HOA covers 24-hour gate staffing, pools, fitness center, and trails — so the total carrying cost competes favorably with comparable non-gated neighborhoods where you would pay separately for gym memberships and security systems.
Most purchases close in 30 to 45 days from accepted offer — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 10 to 14 days. Financed buyers should request the HOA resale package the day they go under contract; the package includes dues, reserves, CC&Rs, and pending assessment disclosures and typically takes 5 to 10 business days to arrive. Building that lead time in prevents resale-package delays from pushing past inspection contingency deadlines.

Eight queries Rhodes Ranch South buyers search most — answered with verifiable specifics from City of Las Vegas, Las Vegas REALTORS MLS data, and GreatSchools ratings. Every figure links to a primary source.
Rhodes Ranch South is the southern section of the broader Rhodes Ranch guard-gated community — the same 24-hour gate, the same Ted Robinson golf course, and the same HOA, but featuring newer construction phases with more contemporary floor plans than the original northern sections. Most buyers treat the whole development as one community; the "South" designation refers to the sub-area south of the internal community dividers near Russell Road.
ZIP 89148 in southwest Las Vegas — the same ZIP covering the broader Rhodes Ranch development, the Fort Apache corridor, and the Warm Springs area. The single-ZIP footprint simplifies insurance and school research, though CCSD school assignments vary by address within the ZIP. Always verify the specific campus for any shortlisted home.
By guard-gated golf community standards, yes. Entry at approximately $350,000 makes Rhodes Ranch South one of the most accessible staffed-gate communities in the Las Vegas Valley. The $125 to $250 monthly HOA funds the gate, pools, fitness center, and trails — an efficient fee structure for what the amenity package delivers. Buyers coming from non-gated southwest Las Vegas find the carrying cost premium is modest for the lifestyle upgrade.
The Las Vegas Valley experiences periodic flash flood events, and FEMA flood-zone maps should be checked for any specific parcel in the southwest corridor. Most Rhodes Ranch South properties are in low-risk flood zones, but verify the flood designation via the FEMA Flood Map Service Center and check whether flood insurance is required by your lender before the appraisal deadline.
The fundamentals are solid: an established 2001 community with consistent rental demand, guard-gated security that retains tenant and buyer quality, a Ted Robinson golf course adding green-space value, and southwest Las Vegas commercial growth within 10 minutes. Returns depend on section, lot position, and purchase price — ask Nevada Real Estate Group for recent closed comparables before writing an offer.
The southern section phases were built starting in 2001, making homes approximately 22 to 25 years old as of 2026. That vintage means original HVAC, roofing, pool equipment, and water heaters are approaching or past first major service cycles. Budget a thorough inspection and price any deferred maintenance into your offer accordingly.
Within the community, yes — the internal trail system and quiet interior streets make walking to the pool, fitness center, and golf course practical. For daily errands, the community is car-dependent: Blue Diamond Road retail is 10 minutes by car and not walkable from the gate. This is standard for all southwest Las Vegas suburban communities.
The Rhodes Ranch HOA is the single community association covering all sections including the southern sub-area. Dues run $125 to $250 monthly covering gate staffing, security patrols, community pools, fitness center, tennis and basketball courts, trail maintenance, and common-area landscaping. The HOA has operated continuously since 2001 with mature governing procedures. Request full financials, reserves, and any pending assessment history early in your escrow period.
