School planning

Which Schools Serve a Las Vegas Address?

Ask the district for the address-specific school assignment for the enrollment year, since boundaries change, and confirm it before you buy. Proximity to a school does not guarantee admission; charter, magnet and private schools set their own rules. Check CCSD school zoning · Nevada Report Card

CRIME DATA

How Can You Check Reported Crime Near a Home?

Ask the law-enforcement agency that serves the address for its current reports, and compare places only across the same reporting period, boundary and offense definitions. Missing records do not mean zero crime, the FBI cautions against ranking communities on crime totals alone, and a citywide figure does not describe a particular street.

Living In

What's It Like Living in Crested Canyon at Kestrel?


The Answer

Living in Crested Canyon at Kestrel means direct access to 150+ miles of Summerlin trails, five minutes to Downtown Summerlin's shops and restaurants, and Red Rock Canyon ten minutes west — all inside Howard Hughes Corporation's award-winning master plan at roughly 3,000 feet elevation in ZIP 89138, served by Nevada's highest-rated public middle school.

What is Crested Canyon at Kestrel known for?

Crested Canyon is known for its trail-system connectivity, contemporary desert architecture, and top-rated CCSD schools — especially Sig Rogich Middle School (10/10), one of Nevada's highest-rated public campuses. It sits in Kestrel, Summerlin's newest village cluster on the master plan's northern edge, at roughly 3,000 feet elevation near Red Rock Canyon.

Who should live in Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

Families with school-age children who want public school excellence without private-school tuition; California relocators seeking trail-connected suburban living at a fraction of coastal pricing; professionals who want a twenty-minute Strip commute with genuine outdoor access at the doorstep.

What is daily life like?

Morning runs on the Paseos Linear Park trail, a ten-minute drive to Red Rock Canyon for a harder hike, groceries and dinner at Downtown Summerlin five minutes south, and evenings back on quiet HOA-maintained streets. Summer heat peaks July–September (105°F+), so early-morning trail time and the air-conditioned Downtown Summerlin scene define the rhythm.

POPULATION & GROWTH

How Fast Is the Crested Canyon Area Growing?

Summerlin West is one of the fastest-growing corridors in the Las Vegas Valley — Howard Hughes Corporation continues to release new land in the Kestrel cluster, and ZIP 89138 has absorbed thousands of new households since 2015. Las Vegas as a whole has added roughly 96,000 residents since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, with the far-northwest Summerlin corridor outpacing the citywide rate.

Las Vegas citywide population trajectory, 2010–2025 (Census)

Inside Kestrel, growth is controlled by Howard Hughes Corporation's land-release pace — new phases open as prior ones sell through, which prevents oversupply and supports resale values in established neighborhoods like Crested Canyon. The broader 89138 ZIP continues to attract families priced out of coastal California markets, with school-zone quality (Sig Rogich 10/10) serving as a consistent driver.

Planning a move

What Should I Verify Before Moving to Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

Budget around the specific home, not a community average. Before you compare the cost of a move to Crested Canyon at Kestrel, get these in writing:

  • The parcel's annual assessment, prior-year tax bill and abatement eligibility. A sale alone does not reset Nevada’s tax cap. Nevada tax-abatement rules
  • Lender, insurance and utility quotes for the exact address, plus the association's resale documents and any special assessments.
  • The school assignment for the enrollment year, confirmed with the district.
  • Your tax situation, reviewed by an adviser — California-source income can remain taxable after a move (Franchise Tax Board).
  • Qualifying new residents generally must obtain a Nevada driver’s license and vehicle registration within 30 days. Check the Nevada DMV’s requirements and exceptions for your circumstances.

COMMUTE & TRANSPORTATION

How Easy Is Getting Around From Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

Kestrel sits at the intersection of West Charleston Boulevard and the 215 Beltway — the arterials that connect the northwest Summerlin corridor to the rest of the valley. Mean Las Vegas commutes run about 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data — and most Crested Canyon destinations across the west valley beat that comfortably.

Transportation Options

  • Driving

    The standard, and well-designed: West Charleston Boulevard and the 215 Beltway put the Strip, airport, and Downtown Summerlin within easy range. The 89138 ZIP has minimal congestion outside the Charleston/215 interchange at peak hours.

  • RTC Transit

    Routes service the Charleston Boulevard corridor just outside the neighborhood, but residents should not plan a car-free life — the northwest Summerlin edge is a driving community by design.

  • Cycling & Trails

    The Summerlin trail system connects directly through the neighborhood for cycling and running; dedicated bike lanes run West Charleston toward Red Rock Canyon, making it one of the best urban cycling corridors in Las Vegas.

  • Rideshare

    Reliable and affordable this close to the west valley; airport runs cost roughly $40–$55 from Kestrel, and pickup reliability is strong because of driver density in the Summerlin corridor.

Drive times are typical off-peak estimates for the route named; check live traffic before you rely on one.

Crested Canyon at Kestrel FAQ — 18 Answers

What Do Crested Canyon at Kestrel Buyers Most Frequently Ask?

Most Asked

What is the price range for homes in Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

$600,000–$950,000 is the typical Crested Canyon at Kestrel window; the area median is near $825,000 per NREG’s analysis of Las Vegas REALTORS MLS data. Trail-access lots and Red Rock Canyon view corridors command measurable premiums over standard pricing. Call Nevada Real Estate Group at (702) 637-1759 for active listings and current comparable sales.

What village is Crested Canyon in?

Crested Canyon belongs to Kestrel, one of the newest villages inside the Summerlin master plan developed by Howard Hughes Corporation. Kestrel sits on Summerlin's northern edge in ZIP 89138 at roughly 3,000 feet elevation — five minutes from Downtown Summerlin and ten from the Red Rock Canyon trailheads. Buyers who want new-construction quality at a step below The Ridges typically land here or in Blacktail, Kestrel's immediate neighbor.

Is Crested Canyon at Kestrel guard-gated?

No — Crested Canyon is an open-access neighborhood within the Summerlin master plan. It is not guard-gated, though it benefits from the planned street network, HOA-maintained common areas, and the low crime environment of the far-northwest Summerlin corridor. Buyers who specifically want a staffed gate typically look at The Ridges or Red Rock Country Club inside the same master plan.

What are HOA fees in Crested Canyon?

HOA dues in Crested Canyon run $100–$225 per month, covering both the Summerlin master association and the neighborhood sub-association — common-area landscaping, trail maintenance, community amenities, and master-plan governance. Because each sub-association sets its own budget, confirm the exact figure with a current resale package before writing an offer. Our team pulls those documents for every buyer we represent.

What schools serve Crested Canyon?

Clark County School District assigns Crested Canyon families to John C. Vanderburg Elementary (8/10), Sig Rogich Middle School (10/10 — one of Nevada's top-rated public campuses), and Palo Verde High School (8/10) per GreatSchools. Private options include The Meadows School, Bishop Gorman, and Faith Lutheran; Doral Academy Red Rock and Pinecrest Academy of Nevada lead the charter tier. Confirm zoning by specific address before closing.

How far is Crested Canyon at Kestrel from the Strip?

Roughly 20 minutes via Summerlin Parkway and I-15; Harry Reid International Airport runs about 30 minutes on I-215 South. Daily life stays closer: Downtown Summerlin sits about five minutes out, Red Rock Canyon's trailheads about ten, and the Summerlin Hospital Medical Center roughly fifteen. The I-215 Beltway is the arterial most Kestrel commuters use for valley-wide reach.

What ZIP code is Crested Canyon at Kestrel in?

ZIP code 89138 covers Crested Canyon and the rest of Summerlin's Kestrel village. Homes carry Las Vegas, NV 89138 addresses, fall under the Clark County School District, and sit minutes from both Red Rock Canyon and Downtown Summerlin. Filter your search to 89138 to keep Crested Canyon and comparable Kestrel listings in view, then call our team to tour the standouts.

What is property tax like in Crested Canyon?

Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of market value per the Clark County Assessor, and the state caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3% under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.4723 once the owner claims it (homes that are not owner-occupied get a cap of up to 8%). On an $825,000 Crested Canyon home, that works out to roughly $4,130–$5,780 per year — a fraction of what a similar family home carries in California, where effective rates typically run near 1.1–1.3%.

How does Crested Canyon compare to other Kestrel villages?

Crested Canyon shares Kestrel's open-access, trail-laced character with Blacktail and a handful of other sub-neighborhoods. Prices run $700K–$950K in Crested Canyon versus $750K–$1.1M at Blacktail's newest phases. Both sit in ZIP 89138 at elevation near Red Rock Canyon. The practical difference is usually floor plan and lot — our agents can pull side-by-side comparables across Kestrel villages before your first tour.

What is the Summerlin trail system?

Summerlin's trail network spans more than 150 miles of paved and natural-surface paths connecting neighborhoods, parks, schools, and shopping centers across the master plan. Crested Canyon at Kestrel connects directly into this network via the Paseos Linear Park and Fox Hill Park trailheads — both within the neighborhood. The trails are maintained by the Summerlin master association and are included in the HOA dues every homeowner pays.

Is Crested Canyon a good investment in 2026?

Kestrel-village homes have tracked Summerlin's overall appreciation, which has outpaced the Clark County median over most multi-year windows according to Las Vegas REALTORS data. The structural tailwind is supply discipline: Howard Hughes Corporation controls land release across the master plan, so Summerlin West doesn't overbuild. Buyers planning a 5-year-plus hold in the $700K–$950K band have historically done well — verify current days-on-market and absorption with our team before you write.

What outdoor amenities are near Crested Canyon?

The Paseos Linear Park and Fox Hill Park are both within the neighborhood — trails, disc golf, zip lines, and desert gardens. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area's 195,000-acre conservation area is about ten minutes via West Charleston Boulevard; the 13-mile scenic drive and world-class hiking and climbing are managed by the Bureau of Land Management. TPC Summerlin, home of the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, is about fifteen minutes east.

Does Nevada have a state income tax?

No — Nevada levies zero state personal income tax, the primary financial catalyst behind the steady stream of California buyers choosing Summerlin. California's top marginal rate is 13.3% per the Franchise Tax Board; a household earning $250,000 saves roughly $25,000 per year by moving to Nevada. Combined with the 3% annual property-tax cap under NRS 361.4723, total ownership costs in Crested Canyon run far below a comparable California suburb.

What builders are active near Crested Canyon in Kestrel?

Crested Canyon is an established neighborhood — most inventory today is resale rather than brand-new production. However, Howard Hughes Corporation continues to release land in adjacent Kestrel phases, with Toll Brothers, Woodside Homes, and Tri Pointe Homes active in nearby Summerlin West villages. Buyers wanting new construction with a Kestrel address should ask our team which phases are currently selling and what incentives builders are offering this month.

What should I know before buying in Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

Four things move real money here. First, confirm HOA tiers: master-association plus sub-association dues together run $100–$225 monthly — always pull the full resale package. Second, verify school zoning by exact address. Third, ask about trail-access lots and Red Rock view corridors, which command measurable premiums. Fourth, budget financing correctly: most homes are in conventional territory, but jumbo loans apply above the conforming limit. Call (702) 637-1759 and we will run the numbers.

What down payment do you need to buy in Crested Canyon?

Most Crested Canyon buyers put down 5–20%. Conventional financing covers the $600K–$950K price band — on an $825,000 home, plan roughly $41,300 (5%) to $165,000 (20%) down. VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans, and the majority of homes here sit below the conventional conforming limit. Our team can connect you with lenders who close Summerlin purchases regularly and understand HOA document turnaround timelines.

What does an HOA cost in Crested Canyon at Kestrel?

Budget $100–$225 per month, covering both the Summerlin master association and the Crested Canyon sub-association — common-area landscaping, trail connectivity, community parks, and master-plan governance. Always pull the current resale package (dues, reserve study, assessment history) early in escrow; sub-association dues can vary street by street. Transfer and capital fees at closing are separate and should be priced into your offer math.

How long does it take to close on a home in Crested Canyon?

Most Crested Canyon purchases close in 30–45 days through a Nevada escrow company. Cash offers can close in 10–14 days. The main timing variable is HOA document review — Summerlin master association and sub-association resale packages have statutory delivery windows, so request them immediately after acceptance. Jumbo files rarely apply here, so financing timelines usually run standard.

Where Does This Crested Canyon at Kestrel Data Come From?

Every statistic on this page is sourced from a primary or government dataset, refreshed monthly. Because Crested Canyon is a neighborhood inside a larger ZIP code (89138), we present ZIP-area statistics as area benchmarks — never neighborhood-only claims — and omit block-level medians that small samples cannot support.
