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.

When requesting local information, provide the property address and ask which agency and geographic boundary each report represents, along with any known reporting gaps.

Marycrest delivers mid-century character in central Las Vegas: 50 acres established in 1956, 350-plus ranch-style homes on wide lots, mature tree canopy, and walkable streets at $200K–$400K. City of Las Vegas handles municipal services, and Nevada's zero income tax keeps relocation costs lean.
Marycrest is known as one of Las Vegas's original mid-century residential neighborhoods — the 1956 development that brought wide-lot ranch homes, mature landscaping, and walkable block patterns to a city that later pivoted almost entirely to master-planned communities. Buyers who want architectural character rather than uniformity consistently gravitate to Marycrest.
It fits first-time buyers seeking an accessible entry into Las Vegas homeownership, renovation investors hunting value-add equity in a location-advantaged ZIP, California relocators who grew up in mid-century neighborhoods, hospitality and service workers needing a Strip-adjacent base, and long-term investors targeting durable rental demand in central Las Vegas.
Mornings walk the wide sidewalks under a mature tree canopy, afternoons access Lorenzi Park or Floyd Lamb Park for outdoor recreation, and evenings put the Strip entertainment corridor 15 minutes away. The neighborhood's central location collapses commute times that outlying master plans cannot compete with.
Marycrest anchors a historic block in central Las Vegas ZIP 89104, roughly 15 minutes from the Strip and Downtown Las Vegas, east of I-15 and west of the Maryland Parkway corridor. About 50 acres of established residential streets.
Quick Answer
Yes — for buyers who value location, affordability, and character over master-plan amenities. Marycrest delivers a 15-minute Strip commute, mid-century homes on wide lots from $200K–$400K, and a walkable historic block pattern in central Las Vegas. The honest trade-offs: school ratings average 5–6/10 on GreatSchools for default-zone campuses, no guard gate, and original homes require renovation budgeting. Nevada's zero state income tax and sub-1% property-tax rate strengthen the value proposition at every price point in this neighborhood.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Las Vegas city — the municipality containing Marycrest — the parent city holds 656,274 residents with a median household income of $66,820. Community records place Marycrest at 350-plus households with an estimated average income around $55,000 and a 50% homeownership rate.
The Census does not break Marycrest out as its own place, so the figures below are Las Vegas citywide — presented honestly as the statistical backdrop. Inside the neighborhood, our transaction data shows a mix of first-time buyers drawn by the accessible price band, renovation investors targeting the value-add spread, long-term residents who have owned since the 1970s and 1980s, and a growing contingent of California relocators attracted by mid-century architecture at a fraction of coastal pricing.

POPULATION & GROWTH
Marycrest itself is built out — the 350-plus home neighborhood completed its original development in the 1950s — while its parent city continues adding residents. Las Vegas has grown by roughly 120,000 people since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, keeping demand pressure on established central-city neighborhoods like Marycrest that offer location advantages newer master plans cannot match.
Inside Marycrest, growth means turnover and renovation activity, not expansion: the 350-home neighborhood is built out, so every new Las Vegas resident seeking central-city character competes for a fixed supply of mid-century homes. That dynamic — rising metro demand against a capped, location-advantaged inventory — is the investment logic that renovation investors and character-seeking buyers are already acting on.

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.

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
Local streets provide direct Strip access in about 15 minutes, and I-15 a few blocks away connects Marycrest to the airport in 20 minutes. Mean Las Vegas commutes run near 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data, and Marycrest residents heading to Strip or Downtown employers consistently run under that average.

Quick Answer
Most Marycrest purchases close in 21 to 35 days from accepted offer — Nevada uses escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 10 to 14 days. The biggest timeline variable is inspection follow-up on original 1956 construction: deferred maintenance items often require re-negotiation, repair credits, or additional contractor bids. Request any HOA resale package the day you go under contract so documents clear before inspection deadlines.
Quick Answer
Marycrest's $200K–$400K price band fits multiple financing programs. FHA requires 3.5% down with a 580-plus credit score; on a $300,000 home, that is $10,500 down. Conventional loans start at 3–5% down. VA allows 0% down for eligible veterans. USDA may apply for adjacent rural areas. Model the full monthly cost — principal, interest, taxes, insurance, PMI if applicable, and HOA — before locking your target price point.
Marycrest FAQ — 18 Answers
Marycrest homes range from approximately $200,000 for original 1956-era properties needing renovation to $400,000 for updated resales. ZIP 89104 carried a $419,000 median list price in September 2026 per Las Vegas REALTORS, with a median sold of $395,000 and $253 per square foot. Condition drives the spread: updated homes with modern kitchens command the top of the band; originals offer an entry point for buyers with a remodel budget. Call (702) 637-1759 for a comparable-sales analysis before writing an offer.
Marycrest sits in ZIP code 89104 in Las Vegas, Nevada. That places the neighborhood roughly 15 minutes from both the Strip and Downtown Las Vegas, with Harry Reid International Airport about 20 minutes away via I-15 or I-215. Use 89104 when setting up listing alerts and comparing insurance quotes. Values within this ZIP can shift meaningfully block to block, so keep comparable sales tight to the Marycrest street grid when evaluating a specific property.
Little to none. HOA fees in Marycrest run $0 to $30 per month, and many homes carry no formal association at all. Where an association exists, modest dues typically cover common-area maintenance. Low or no dues keep monthly carrying costs down, but they also mean fewer enforced community standards, so home condition can vary meaningfully from street to street. Confirm whether a specific property has dues and request any resale package whenever an association applies.
About 15 minutes via local roads — no freeway required for most Strip destinations. Downtown Las Vegas is a similar 15-minute drive, Harry Reid International Airport runs about 20 minutes via I-15 or I-215, and Summerlin is roughly 25 minutes by US-95 or Summerlin Parkway. Marycrest sits east of I-15, which makes Strip commutes straightforward. Drive your actual route at your typical shift time before committing to the neighborhood.
Clark County School District serves Marycrest; nearby assigned campuses include John C. Fremont Elementary (6/10 GreatSchools), Fremont Middle School (5/10), and Clark High School (6/10 grades 9–12). Private standouts include Bishop Gorman High School (A+) and The Meadows School (PreK–12, A+). Charters Coral Academy of Science (8/10) and Nevada State High School (7/10) broaden the option set. CCSD attendance zones can shift, so verify the exact address with the district before writing an offer.
Marycrest was built in 1956, giving it mid-century ranch and early-contemporary designs that master-planned communities built after 2000 simply cannot replicate. Original details — low-pitched rooflines, wide eave overhangs, clerestory windows, and concrete block construction common to mid-century Las Vegas — are structural rather than decorative. These features reward buyers who appreciate character over uniformity, and renovation-savvy buyers can unlock significant equity by modernizing interiors while preserving the exterior profile.
Substantial. At $200K–$400K, Marycrest offers one of the most accessible entry points for a value-add renovation in Las Vegas ZIP 89104. Original homes in the $200K–$275K range often carry 1960s kitchens, single-pane windows, and original plumbing — all replaceable. A well-executed renovation in this ZIP area has delivered meaningful equity, with updated homes commanding $350K–$400K versus originals at $200K–$250K. Budget $40K–$90K for a thorough gut-and-update and build your ownership-cost model before offering.
Marycrest trades master-plan amenities and newer construction for architectural character, mature tree canopy, and a Strip-adjacent location that 2000s-era suburbs cannot match. Lots in Marycrest run larger than equivalent-priced homes in new subdivisions, and the block-by-block walkability is a feature newer neighborhoods simply do not have. The honest trade-offs: aging infrastructure (roofs, HVAC, plumbing on original homes), no community pool or guard gate, and a school zone that rates below top-tier master-plan campuses.
Marycrest is within the incorporated boundaries of the City of Las Vegas, ZIP 89104. Municipal services — street maintenance, parks, code enforcement, and planning — are administered by the City of Las Vegas rather than unincorporated Clark County. That distinction matters for permits, variances on renovation projects, and short-term rental regulations. Verify current STR rules directly with the City before underwriting any nightly-rental income strategy on a Marycrest purchase.
Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.75% 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 $300,000 purchase, plan around $1,500 to $2,250 annually. Long-held homes in Marycrest often carry tax bills below market value because assessed values reset after sale. Verify the post-sale figure with the Clark County Assessor before building your carrying-cost budget.
Marycrest is drawing three overlapping buyer types: first-time buyers seeking Las Vegas character at under $400K, renovation investors hunting value-add equity in a location-advantaged ZIP, and California relocators who grew up in mid-century neighborhoods and want that aesthetic without the California price tag. The neighborhood's walkability, Strip proximity, and mature landscaping attract buyers who prioritize location and character over new construction amenity packages.
Yes. The combination of a $200K–$400K price range, a 15-minute Strip commute, and a 23-day median days-on-market pace in ZIP 89104 per Las Vegas REALTORS creates a workable long-term rental scenario. Single-family homes in this corridor typically rent for $1,600–$2,400 per month depending on condition and bedrooms. Short-term rentals require City of Las Vegas licensing; confirm current regulations before underwriting nightly income. Renovation flips carry real equity potential at this ZIP price band.
Four factors move real money in Marycrest. First, condition assessment: original systems — roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical — on a 1956 home need professional inspection and realistic replacement budgets before you offer. Second, renovation scope: the gap between asking price and post-renovation value defines your equity; model it before negotiating. Third, no guard gate: home-selection and street-level due diligence matter more here than in gated communities. Fourth, post-sale tax reset: assessed value rises to current market value after closing — verify the new tax figure early.
Marycrest connects quickly to core Las Vegas destinations: roughly 15 minutes to the Strip via local roads, 15 minutes to Downtown Las Vegas, 20 minutes to Harry Reid International Airport via I-15 or I-215, and about 25 minutes to Summerlin via US-95 or Summerlin Parkway. The central east-of-I-15 location makes Marycrest one of the better-positioned vintage neighborhoods for Strip and downtown-area employment.
Most Marycrest purchases close in 21 to 35 days from accepted offer — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash purchases can close in 10 to 14 days. Conventional buyers under the $726,200 conforming limit should have no appraisal delay. The biggest timeline variable is inspection follow-up: original-construction homes in the $200K–$400K range frequently surface deferred maintenance items that require re-negotiation, repair credits, or additional contractor bids before both parties clear contingencies.
Marycrest's $200K–$400K price band fits standard conventional financing. At $300,000, a 5% down payment is $15,000; 10% is $30,000; and 20% down at $60,000 avoids PMI. FHA requires 3.5% down with a 580-plus credit score. VA and USDA allow 0% down for eligible buyers. First-time buyers should model the full monthly cost — principal, interest, property tax, insurance, and any HOA dues — before locking a target price.
Most Marycrest homes carry $0 to $30 per month in HOA dues, and many have no formal association at all. Where an association exists, dues cover shared common-area maintenance. Confirm whether the specific property has an HOA, request the governing documents and reserve fund report, and factor in the absence of enforced community standards when evaluating home condition on neighboring lots.
Typical Marycrest closings run 21 to 35 days from accepted offer. Nevada uses escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 10 to 14 days. Inspection negotiations on original 1956 construction can add time — build buffer into your timeline and request any resale package on day one of escrow.

PEOPLE ALSO ASK
These are the eight queries Marycrest buyers type into Google and AI assistants — answered with verifiable specifics sourced from City of Las Vegas, Las Vegas REALTORS MLS data, and GreatSchools school ratings. Every figure links to a primary source you can check.
Marycrest is within the incorporated boundaries of the City of Las Vegas, ZIP 89104. Municipal services — street maintenance, parks, code enforcement, and planning — are administered by the City of Las Vegas directly. That means City of Las Vegas permit offices, not County, handle renovation permits and variances. It also means current City of Las Vegas STR regulations apply if you are considering short-term rental income.
ZIP 89104 — a central Las Vegas ZIP east of I-15. Drive times from this ZIP run 15 minutes to the Strip, 15 minutes to Downtown Las Vegas, and 20 minutes to Harry Reid International Airport. Use 89104 when setting listing alerts and comparing insurance quotes across the neighborhood.
Marycrest was established in 1956 by various builders, making its homes approximately 68–70 years old as of 2026. That vintage means original homes carry mid-century construction quality — concrete block walls, wide eave overhangs, generous lots — but also age-related system cycles on roof, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical that require professional inspection and realistic budget modeling before any offer.
More than most Las Vegas neighborhoods — Marycrest's 1956 block pattern features wide sidewalks, mature street trees, and a pedestrian scale that master-planned communities built after 2000 cannot replicate. Daily errands require a car given the absence of walkable retail immediately adjacent, but the block-by-block pedestrian experience is a genuine neighborhood asset that character-seeking buyers value.
Yes. The combination of a $200K–$400K price range, a 15-minute Strip commute, a 23-day median market pace in ZIP 89104, and a renovation equity spread of $75K–$125K between original and updated homes creates a workable investment case. Single-family homes in this corridor rent for $1,600–$2,400 per month. Confirm City of Las Vegas STR regulations before underwriting nightly income — long-term holds are the more straightforward investor thesis here.
Approximately 15 minutes via local roads — Marycrest connects to the Fremont Street Experience, the Arts District, and Container Park without a freeway. The growing Downtown Las Vegas employment base in arts, hospitality, entertainment, and technology is a natural commute destination for Marycrest residents, and the 15-minute drive is among the shortest of any single-family residential neighborhood in this price range.
Many Marycrest homes carry no HOA at all. Where an association exists, dues run $0 to $30 per month — nominal compared to the $200–$800 monthly fees typical of master-planned communities. That absence of mandatory dues is a structural cost advantage for buyers prioritizing low carrying costs. Confirm the HOA status of any specific property and request governing documents and the reserve fund report during escrow.
The fundamentals are favorable at the entry tier: a built-out 350-home neighborhood in a central Las Vegas ZIP with a 15-minute Strip commute, a $75K–$125K renovation equity spread, and consistent long-term rental demand from hospitality and service workers. Returns depend on purchase price, renovation scope, and rental vs. flip strategy. Ask Nevada Real Estate Group for recent ZIP 89104 closed comps and renovation ROI examples before writing an offer.
