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.

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

McCullough Hills delivers Henderson's most distinctive semi-rural living: approximately 800 foothill acres along the McCullough Range, large lots averaging quarter-acre to one-acre, BLM trail access from the neighborhood edge, and mountain views that no master-planned subdivision can match. City of Henderson services cover every parcel, and Nevada's zero state income tax keeps relocation budgets honest.
McCullough Hills is known as Henderson's premier semi-rural foothill community — the area along the McCullough Range where larger lots, privacy, and direct BLM trail access coexist with Henderson city services, the I-215 beltway, and the airport just fifteen minutes away.
It fits buyers who want space and privacy over community amenities: custom-home seekers, outdoor enthusiasts who want trail access from the driveway, move-up buyers outgrowing standard Henderson subdivisions, and professionals who want rural atmosphere with urban convenience.
Mornings mean a trail run into the McCullough Range BLM land or a walk through quiet, low-density streets; errands run to the Saint Rose Parkway corridor or Anthem's retail about ten minutes east; and the I-215 puts the airport fifteen minutes away.
McCullough Hills sits along the McCullough Range foothills in south Henderson, straddling ZIP codes 89012 and 89052. About 800 acres. Roughly 15 miles from the Strip and 15 minutes from Harry Reid Airport via the I-215.
Quick Answer
Yes — for the right buyer profile, it is Henderson's benchmark for semi-rural living. McCullough Hills pairs large lots, mountain views, and direct BLM trail access with Henderson city services, an 85% homeownership rate, and the I-215 corridor putting the airport fifteen minutes away. Pricing spans $500K entry homes to $1.2M+ custom Estates. The honest trade-offs: urban retail requires a drive, the two-ZIP market blends diverse inventory, and foothill lots demand terrain assessment. Nevada's zero state income tax sweetens every relocation.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Henderson — the city that contains McCullough Hills — the parent city holds 331,857 residents with a median household income of $88,654. Community records estimate 5,000+ residents inside the foothill plan, with an average household income of $110,000+ reflecting the higher-income buyer profile typical of large-lot semi-rural communities.
The Census does not break McCullough Hills out as its own place, so the figures below are Henderson citywide — presented honestly as the statistical backdrop. Inside the plan, the 85% homeownership rate and large-lot character attract professionals, executives, and outdoor-oriented families who prioritize space and privacy over proximity to urban amenities.

POPULATION & GROWTH
McCullough Hills has been essentially built out since the early 2010s — the plan's low-density, semi-rural character limits new supply — while its parent city compounds steadily: Henderson has added roughly 74,000 residents since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, and that citywide growth keeps demand pressure on McCullough Hills' finite large-lot inventory.
Inside the foothill plan, growth means turnover, not expansion. The large-lot, semi-rural character cannot be replicated in newer Henderson plans — every parcel is irreplaceable. That scarcity dynamic supports long-term values: when Henderson adds residents, some will always pay a premium for 800-acre foothill land that the rest of the city simply cannot supply.

BY ZIP CODE
McCullough Hills spans two Henderson ZIP codes, and the MLS reports at ZIP level — so the table presents both ZIPs as area corridors, each broader than the foothill plan itself. The $1.08M area list-median is heavily influenced by the high-end 89052 inventory shared with Anthem and Seven Hills; the sold median of $565K reflects actual transaction pace.

Boundaries per Clark County GIS.
New Construction
McCullough Hills is largely built out — limited foothill land restricts new supply, which is part of its appeal. The 1,500+ homes are overwhelmingly resale; occasional custom builds and infill lots trade. Buyers wanting new construction nearby typically look at Inspirada or newer Anthem phases, about 10–15 minutes away, where national builders compete on incentives.

The City of Henderson maintains parks in the surrounding area, BLM land abutting the neighborhood delivers the McCullough Range trail system, and Lake Mead's shores begin about 25 minutes east.

THIS WEEKEND'S OPEN HOUSES
Open houses in McCullough Hills run less frequently than in master-planned subdivisions — sellers here prefer private showings over public opens. With 326 active ZIP-area listings, weekend tours are readily available by appointment. Call (702) 637-1759 and we'll build your showing route, including lot walk-throughs and terrain assessments for every parcel you're serious about.
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.

Plan the purchase and move around your circumstances and the property's verified requirements. Coordinate the transaction, possession and moving arrangements with the relevant parties. For license and vehicle questions, consult the Nevada DMV new-resident guide. Confirm your own deadlines and any exemptions directly with the agency.
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.
Confirm completion and possession with the closing parties before arranging access. Consult the Nevada DMV's current new-resident guide for license, registration, documentation and exemption requirements that apply to you.

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
The I-215 beltway anchors McCullough Hills' commute, and most residents drive — transit does not meaningfully serve the foothill streets. Mean Henderson commutes run near 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data, and McCullough Hills residents typically budget 15–25 minutes to major employment corridors, shorter than most coastal metros they leave behind.

Quick Answer
Most McCullough Hills purchases close in 30 to 45 days from accepted offer — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 7–14 days. Jumbo-financed buyers on Estates-section custom homes should budget additional underwriting time, especially for appraisals on non-standard foothill lots with limited comps. Factor in HOA resale-package delivery time where an association exists.
Quick Answer
Most McCullough Hills buyers put down 10% to 25%. Conventional financing works through the $500K–$806K range; jumbo enters above that for Estates buyers targeting $900K+. On the $565,000 ZIP-area sold median, plan $56,500–$113,000 (10–20%). VA loans work for qualified veterans across the entry and mid-tier price points. Jumbo lenders typically require 20–25% down and full reserves documentation for custom foothill properties.
McCullough Hills FAQ — 18 Answers
Across the McCullough Hills ZIP area — 89012 and 89052 — the median list price sits near $797,000 per Las Vegas REALTORS, reflecting the area's luxury and large-lot inventory. Inside the plan, typical single-family homes trade from the $500Ks, mid-range semi-custom homes from the $600Ks–$800Ks, and custom estates with premium McCullough Range views from the $900Ks to $1.2M+.
McCullough Hills Estates commands the top tier — custom homes on half-acre to one-acre lots with premium mountain views from $800K. McCullough Hills Central offers mid-range semi-custom homes on generous lots with good mountain exposure from the $600Ks. McCullough Hills South adds newer floor plans along the southern edge from $500K. All three sections share the area's defining trait: larger lots, semi-rural character, and direct BLM trail access.
No. Privacy in McCullough Hills comes from the terrain itself — larger lots, low-density foothill development, and semi-rural character — not a staffed gate. Residents still receive full Henderson city services: police, fire, water, and sewer inside city limits. Buyers who want acreage-style seclusion without gated-community dues and formality will find this the better trade-off; walk several streets to feel the difference.
Significantly larger than typical Henderson subdivisions. Many McCullough Hills parcels sit on quarter-acre to one-acre lots — enough room for RV parking, workshops, pools, and expansive outdoor living. Lot usability still varies with foothill grading: steeper sites affect buildable area and drainage. Have a contractor or our team assess slope before committing to a specific parcel; the lot deserves as much inspection time as the house.
Typically $100 to $250 per month, but the range varies meaningfully by section, and some custom-home areas carry minimal or no HOA. That spread changes monthly carrying costs substantially. For every property, confirm whether an association exists and request the resale package — dues, reserves, CC&Rs, and special-assessment history — during escrow. Utility details also matter: select parcels involve well versus municipal water access.
Homes sold across the McCullough Hills ZIP area (89012/89052) moved at a median of about 37 days from list to accepted offer per Las Vegas REALTORS MLS statistics. Properties with premium mountain views and well-maintained large lots in the Estates section attract motivated buyers quickly; custom homes at the top of the price range typically sit longer, giving buyers negotiating room.
Low by national standards. Nevada's effective rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of a home's 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 $565,000 purchase, plan around $3,400 per year. Long-held custom homes often carry abated bills that reset dramatically after sale — confirm the post-sale assessment with the Assessor before finalizing your carrying-cost budget.
Trail access is exceptional. McCullough Hills connects directly to the McCullough Range trail system on BLM land, with hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding starting at the neighborhood's edge. The McCullough Hills Trail area covers roughly 500 acres of public land. Nearby Anthem Hills Park adds developed trails, a playground, and basketball courts. Buyers who prioritize outdoor access should target parcels closest to the BLM trailheads.
Solid options across every level. Zoned campuses include John C. Vanderburg Elementary (8/10 on GreatSchools), Del E. Webb Middle School (7/10), and Coronado High School (7/10). Private options include Henderson International School (PreK–12) and Bishop Gorman High School, both highly regarded. Doral Academy of Nevada provides a 8/10-rated charter choice. School zone boundaries can vary by parcel — verify the exact zoning for any address before offering.
Yes, especially for families valuing space, privacy, and outdoor access. Larger lots support backyard pools, play areas, and RV parking; BLM trails start at the edge of the neighborhood; and Henderson's city services provide the safety and infrastructure of a well-run municipality. The 85% homeownership rate in the area reflects a stable, owner-heavy community. Families wanting urban retail and dining within minutes may prefer Anthem or Green Valley Ranch nearby.
Thin and specialized. The large-lot, semi-rural character attracts owner-occupants overwhelmingly — the area's 85% homeownership rate confirms a purchase-driven market rather than a rental one. When single-family homes do rent here, premiums reflect the lot size and mountain-view positioning; expect significantly higher rents than Henderson's typical subdivisions. Investors should verify Henderson's short-term rental rules before underwriting nightly income.
The area's defining amenities are natural: McCullough Range BLM trails, desert panoramas, and the quiet of semi-rural foothill living. For urban conveniences, the Saint Rose Parkway commercial corridor is close, Anthem's retail and dining is about 10 minutes east, Green Valley Ranch and The District are roughly 20 minutes north via the I-215, and the Henderson executive airport corridor is convenient for business travelers.
Reasonable by valley standards. Harry Reid International Airport is about 15 minutes via the I-215 West. The Strip is approximately 25 minutes via I-215 to I-15. Anthem is roughly 10 minutes east on Eastern Avenue, and Green Valley Ranch is about 20 minutes north. The I-215 provides the main commute artery — most residents budget 20–30 minutes to major employment corridors, with lighter traffic than Las Vegas city streets.
Yes. McCullough Hills falls within Henderson city limits, served by the Henderson Police Department, and Henderson consistently ranks among the safest large cities in the United States in comparisons built on FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data. Low-density development, an 85% owner-occupancy rate, and semi-rural character keep the area quiet — typical concerns are desert property matters rather than violent crime.
Five things matter most here. First, terrain: foothill lots vary in slope, grading, and buildable area — walk the parcel before offering. Second, utility setup: select areas involve well versus municipal water access; confirm what applies. Third, HOA status: some sections have dues of $100–$250/month, others minimal or none. Fourth, tax resets: long-held homes re-set to current assessed value post-sale. Fifth, the two-ZIP MLS blend: the $797K area median includes high-end 89052 inventory beyond the plan.
Most McCullough Hills buyers put down 10% to 25%. Conventional loans work across the $500K–$800K range; jumbo financing enters at roughly $806,500 and is typical for Estates-section custom homes from the $900Ks. On a $565,000 sold median, plan $56,500–$113,000 (10–20%); at $1M+, expect 20–25% from most jumbo lenders. VA and FHA have loan limits that may cap eligibility at the top of the range — verify before budgeting.
McCullough Hills HOA dues run about $100–$250 per month depending on section, and some custom-home areas carry minimal or no association at all. There is no single master HOA billing every household. Always confirm whether a specific parcel has an active association, request the resale package — dues, reserves, and assessment history — during escrow, and factor the monthly figure into your full carrying-cost model.
Most McCullough Hills purchases close in 30 to 45 days from accepted offer — Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys. Cash buyers can close in 7–14 days. Jumbo loans add underwriting time, especially for custom homes with limited comps. Foothill properties may require additional lender review for lot grading or utility setup. Budget extra time if your offer is contingent on appraisal in this less-standardized market.

PEOPLE ALSO ASK
These are the eight queries McCullough Hills buyers actually type into Google and AI assistants — answered with specifics you can verify: community facts from the City of Henderson, prices from Las Vegas REALTORS, and school ratings from GreatSchools.
Henderson. McCullough Hills sits within Henderson city limits along the McCullough Range foothills, with Henderson police, fire, water, and sewer services. Mailing addresses say Henderson, NV 89012 or 89052 — "McCullough Hills" is the community name, not a separate municipality.
The foothill plan primarily spans 89012 and portions of 89052 in Henderson. The two-ZIP scope means MLS statistics blend McCullough Hills with other south Henderson and Anthem inventory — the $797K area list median reflects this blend; the actual sold median is $565K for the plan.
Some large-lot parcels in the Estates section accommodate horses — the BLM trail system from the neighborhood edge includes horseback riding terrain. Verify lot size, zoning classification, and any HOA restrictions before purchasing for equestrian use; not every parcel is zoned or configured for horses.
Most of the plan was developed from 2002 through the early 2010s — significantly newer than Green Valley or older Henderson neighborhoods. Stock is largely 2000s-era construction, with the South section carrying some of the newest floor plans. Inspect roofs, HVAC, and water heaters on homes approaching 20 years old.
No — McCullough Hills is designed for foothill privacy, not walkability. There are no sidewalks to retail, and daily errands require a car. The BLM trail system offers excellent recreational walking and hiking, but the lifestyle is car-first by design. This is a deliberate trade-off for the large-lot, semi-rural character.
Ascaya — the ultra-luxury ridgeline community on the McCullough Range above Henderson — is roughly 5–10 minutes from McCullough Hills depending on the specific parcel. Ascaya sits at higher elevation on the ridgeline; McCullough Hills occupies the lower foothill terrain. Both share the McCullough Range setting but differ dramatically in price ($500K vs $3M+) and community character.
The structural case is strong: no new foothill supply can be created in an 800-acre built-out plan, Henderson's population growth adds demand to fixed inventory, and the 85% homeownership rate signals stability. The caveats: thin resale volume means individual lot quality matters enormously, and the two-ZIP MLS blend requires careful comp evaluation. Returns depend on which parcel you buy, not just the neighborhood name.
Anthem is a large master-planned community with golf courses, community pools, recreation centers, and thousands of homes with traditional subdivision amenity packages. McCullough Hills is semi-rural and small — 1,500+ homes on large lots with BLM trail access and mountain views, but no clubhouse or community pool. Anthem fits family-amenity buyers; McCullough Hills fits privacy-and-outdoors buyers. Anthem is about 10 minutes east on Eastern Avenue.
