SAFETY & CRIME
Is Mission Hills Safe?
Yes. Mission Hills is policed 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. Inside the community, nearly three decades of settled, owner-heavy streets and an active HOA keep typical incidents to suburban property matters.

What Buyers Should Know
Maturity does quiet work here: Mission Hills' neighborhoods have been owner-occupied for nearly thirty years, the community's internal street grid is residential rather than an arterial cut-through, and Henderson Police Department funding benefits from a city that invests in public safety well above national per-capita norms.
Commercial activity along Stephanie Street and Horizon Ridge Parkway brings the property incidents typical of any busy retail corridor — vehicle break-ins and shoplifting reports concentrated around parking lots, at rates consistent with Henderson's broader figures. Residential blocks a street away run quieter.
For buyers wanting additional context: Mission Hills' 76% homeownership rate is above the citywide Henderson average, and established HOA governance means CC&R-enforced community standards. Standard suburban precautions — lighting, locked vehicles, package management — cover the realistic risk picture.

LIVABILITY REPORT CARD
How Does Mission Hills Score?
Mission Hills earns strong marks for schools, safety, and value, with honest trade-offs on housing-stock age and limited in-plan amenities. Below is our category-by-category report card — the same six factors our agents walk through with every relocating buyer before a first tour of this established Henderson community.
Grade A: Safety
Henderson Police Department coverage; Henderson consistently ranks among the safest large U.S. cities per FBI UCR-based comparisons.
Grade A-: Schools
Zoned Elise L. Wolff Elementary rates 9/10 on GreatSchools; Del E. Webb Middle 7/10; Coronado High 7/10 — with Doral Academy (9/10) as a charter option.
Grade B+: Cost of Living
The $492,440 ZIP-area median undercuts Henderson's $548K citywide figure, and HOA dues are among the valley's most affordable at $50–$130 monthly.
Grade B+: Amenities
Mission Hills Park in-community, Cornerstone Park five minutes away, Stephanie Street and Horizon Ridge Parkway retail within ten minutes.
Grade B: Outdoor Access
Mission Hills Park and Cornerstone Park's lake and trails in-area; Lake Mead National Recreation Area about fifteen minutes east via Lake Mead Parkway.
Grade A-: Commute
I-215 and US-95 both reachable within ten minutes: 20 minutes to the airport, 20 to the Strip, 10 to Water Street Henderson.

Quick Answer
Is Mission Hills a good place to live?
Yes — by family-suburb fundamentals, Mission Hills is one of Henderson's most dependable communities. It pairs a 9/10-rated elementary zone (Elise L. Wolff) and nearly three decades of settled, owner-heavy streets with Cornerstone Park's lake, Stephanie Street retail, and an I-215 commute that puts the airport about twenty minutes away. Pricing spans $400K single-story originals to $700K estates, so households rarely outgrow it. The honest trade-offs: homes from 1996 to mid-2000s demand inspection diligence on HVAC and roofs, and the in-plan amenity set is lighter than larger Henderson master plans. Nevada's zero state income tax sweetens every relocation.

Who Lives in Mission Hills?
According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Henderson — the city that contains Mission Hills — the parent city holds 331,857 residents with a median household income of $88,654. Community records put roughly 9,000 residents inside the plan itself, across about 3,000 households.
The Census does not break Mission Hills out as its own place, so the figures below are Henderson citywide — presented honestly as the statistical backdrop. Inside the community, the plan shows a 76% homeownership rate, reflecting the stable, owner-heavy character typical of established Henderson family communities from the late 1990s. Our closing data shows school-driven families, California relocators, and downsizers attracted by the single-story sections.

POPULATION & GROWTH
How Fast Is the Mission Hills Area Growing?
Mission Hills finished growing in the mid-2000s — the plan has been essentially built out since then — 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 Mission Hills' finite 2,800-home resale stock.
Henderson citywide population trajectory, 2010–2030 (projected)
Inside Mission Hills, growth means turnover, not expansion: the plan's built-out status means every new Henderson resident looking for an established school-zone community with sub-$550K pricing competes for Mission Hills' finite resale inventory. That supply constraint is the investment thesis of a completed community — no new product dilutes it.

LIVABILITY SCORES
How Does Mission Hills Score for Livability?
Mission Hills pairs an A-grade elementary school zone, Henderson-backed safety, and entry-friendly pricing with honest trade-offs: late-1990s-to-2000s housing stock needs inspection diligence, and summer heat is real.

WHY MISSION HILLS
Why Does Mission Hills Stand Apart From Its Peers?
From the school zone to the market pace, Mission Hills offers a specific set of advantages that newer Henderson communities can't easily match. The five reasons below are tied to verifiable sources — the Nevada Revised Statutes, FBI crime data, Census figures, and Las Vegas REALTORS MLS records — so you can check every claim.
- GreatSchools.org
A 9/10-rated elementary in a sub-$550K market
Elise L. Wolff Elementary at 9/10 on GreatSchools is the defining value advantage — very few Henderson communities deliver this school quality below the $548K citywide median.
- Las Vegas REALTORS / GLVAR, June 2026
The fastest pace in the corridor
At 15 median days on market, Mission Hills moves faster than nearly every comparable Henderson community — reflecting genuine owner-occupier demand, not investor speculation.
- City of Henderson / Community records
Henderson safety and services at HOA economy
Full Henderson Police and city services, with HOA dues of just $50–$130 monthly — an owner-cost structure that leaves room to pay down principal faster.
- Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471
Tax-capped carrying costs
Nevada's 3% primary-residence cap under NRS 361.471 plus zero state income tax keep long-run ownership costs predictable — and the effective rate of 0.5–0.7% ranks among the nation's lowest.
- U.S. Census / LVR, June 2026
Built-out scarcity below the Henderson median
Mission Hills at $492,440 ZIP-area median undercuts Henderson's $548K citywide figure, yet the plan is built out — no new supply can dilute it as Henderson population grows.
WHY BUY IN MISSION HILLS
What Are the Top 10 Reasons to Buy a Home in Mission Hills?
Mission Hills' case rests on school quality, market pace, and tax efficiency: a 9/10-rated elementary zone, 15-day median days on market, property taxes capped at 3% annual growth under Nevada law per Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471, zero state income tax, and housing from $400K single-story originals to $700K estates. Ten sourced reasons follow.
A 9/10-rated elementary zone
Elise L. Wolff Elementary zoned at 9/10 — the highest GreatSchools rating in the Henderson 89002 corridor.

New Construction
Who Builds New Homes in and Around Mission Hills?
Mission Hills is essentially built out — its 2,800+ homes were completed by national builders between 1996 and the mid-2000s. New construction inside the plan is nearly nonexistent. The active pipeline sits in neighboring Henderson master plans fifteen to twenty minutes away, where builders compete on incentives that change monthly.

Quick Answer
What does an HOA cost in Mission Hills?
Mission Hills HOA dues run $50–$130 per month across the community's multiple subdivisions — one of Henderson's more affordable structures. Fees cover common-area landscaping, parks, and community governance. There is no single master association billing every household at the same rate, so dues are subdivision-specific. Always pull the resale package — dues, reserves, and any assessment history — before you close.
Should I Move to Mission Hills?
Every month, households from California and other high-tax states discover that the safe, school-zoned suburb priced out of reach on the coast is attainable in Henderson. California's top state income-tax rate is 13.3% per the Franchise Tax Board; Nevada's is zero, and that single line item funds most relocations.
Why California Buyers Are Choosing Mission Hills
The tax math is straightforward: California's top marginal state income tax is 13.3% — Nevada's is zero. A household earning $250,000 saves roughly $20,000 per year in state income taxes alone. Mission Hills adds the family-suburb argument coastal California can't answer at this price: an effective property-tax rate of roughly 0.5–0.7% with a 3% annual cap for primary residences, attached to a fully built-out community with a 9/10-rated elementary school and 15-day median days on market.
At a $500,000 budget, Los Angeles buyers are looking at a small condo or a starter home far from employment. That same budget in Mission Hills secures a three-to-four-bedroom family home in an established neighborhood zoned to one of Nevada's best-rated public elementary schools — with Cornerstone Park, Stephanie Street shopping, and two freeway connections minutes from the driveway.
According to Las Vegas REALTORS, the median list price across the Mission Hills ZIP area (89002/89074) is $492,440. Per the Clark County Assessor, the effective property-tax rate runs roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value. FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data places Henderson among the safest large U.S. cities, and GreatSchools rates zoned Elise L. Wolff Elementary at 9/10.
Mission Hills runs on healthcare, retail, education, and Henderson city employment: Sunrise Hospital's Henderson campus, St. Rose Dominican, the Stephanie Street commercial corridor, Horizon Ridge Parkway medical offices, and the Henderson municipal campus anchor jobs within ten to fifteen minutes. The Strip's hospitality employment core and Harry Reid International Airport sit about 20 minutes west via I-215.
Cost of Living Snapshot — Mission Hills vs. Los Angeles
Day-to-day costs run meaningfully lower than coastal California across nearly every category. Nevada has no state income tax and no personal property tax on vehicles beyond registration. The category that flips hardest is the one families care about most: a 9/10-rated school zone that starts in the $400Ks here starts well above $1M near comparable Los Angeles campuses.
| Metric | Mission Hills, NV | Los Angeles, CA |
|---|---|---|
| State Income Tax | None | Up to 13.3% |
| Median List Price | $492,440 (ZIP area) | ~$900K+ |
| 9/10-School-Zone Entry | $400Ks (Elise L. Wolff zone) | $1M+ typical |
| Effective Property Tax Rate | ~0.5%–0.7% | ~1.1% on new purchases |
| Airport Commute | 20 min (Harry Reid) | 45–90+ min (LAX) |

Mission Hills Rental Market — Rent vs. Own
Single-family homes typically rent for about $2,000–$2,600/month with school-zone streets commanding premiums and minimal vacancy. The depth is the story: a 2,800-home plan keeps both rental and resale markets liquid, which rewards owners over a 5+ year hold. Short-term rentals are tightly regulated by the City of Henderson — read the rules before underwriting nightly income.

Start Your Relocation SearchRELOCATION TIMELINE
How to relocate to Mission Hills in 8 steps
From first research to keys-in-hand, here's the 8-10 week timeline most Mission Hills 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.
Pick your section and set a budget
Decide which Mission Hills you're buying: $400K–$450K single-story originals, $450K–$575K two-story family plans near Mission Hills Park, $575K–$700K Mission Hills Estates. Each carries different age profiles, floor plans, and HOA subdivision rates.
Get pre-approved — and fast
At a 15-day median, Mission Hills homes move faster than nearly any Henderson community. Get fully underwritten, not just pre-qualified — sellers here regularly choose clean pre-approved offers over contingent ones.
Hire a Mission Hills specialist
School boundaries shift block by block and ZIP-level comps blend in neighboring communities — work with an agent who knows which streets feed which school zones, what specific HOA dues run, and how to write competitive offers in a 15-day market.
Tour in person or virtually
Walk a single-story section, a two-story family street near Mission Hills Park, and a Mission Hills Estates premium lot in one afternoon — the sections feel genuinely different. Virtual tours work well for out-of-state buyers.
Write and negotiate the offer
Clean, fast terms are essential here: sellers see pre-approved buyers first. Inspection-based negotiation still works on homes with older systems, but escalation clauses and flexible possession dates win more than aggressive lowballs.
Inspection, HOA docs & appraisal
Age the diligence to the stock: HVAC, roof, water heater, and plumbing on 1996-to-mid-2000s homes. Pull the resale package — dues, reserves, CC&Rs — for your subdivision; rates vary across the community.
Clear conditions & fund
Nevada closes through escrow companies, not attorneys; expect 30-45 days from acceptance to funding. HOA document delivery adds a few days — budget that into your timeline from the start.
Close, move, and register
Transfer utilities (NV Energy, Southwest Gas, City of Henderson water), then handle the Nevada DMV — license within 30 days, vehicle registration within 60.

The 5-year breakeven
Owning a ZIP-area-median Mission Hills home for five years nets out cheaper than renting once principal paydown and appreciation are counted — and the owner walks away with roughly $120,000 in equity (including the down payment) while the renter walks away with none. A built-out plan with no new supply and a 9/10 school zone gives that appreciation assumption structural support.
Model assumptions: 7.0% 30-yr fixed (Freddie Mac PMMS), 3% annual appreciation, 4% annual rent growth, 0.6% effective property tax, $90/mo blended HOA, ~7% resale costs.

For single-level living: the dedicated single-story sections from the $400Ks, popular with downsizers and empty-nesters. For commuter convenience: Stephanie Street Area homes near the I-215 beltway.
Is Mission Hills guard-gated?
No — Mission Hills is an open, established community governed by an HOA within Henderson city limits. Safety comes from the Henderson Police Department, and Henderson consistently ranks among the safest large U.S. cities per FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data. The open format keeps HOA dues moderate at $50–$130 monthly — buyers wanting gates can look to Seven Hills or MacDonald Highlands at a meaningful price premium.
What are property taxes like in Mission Hills?
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 $492,440 purchase, plan around $2,950 per year. Long-held Mission Hills homes often carry abated tax bills — verify the post-sale assessment reset with the Assessor before budgeting.
What are HOA fees in Mission Hills?
HOA dues typically run $50–$130 per month — one of the more affordable structures in Henderson. Fees cover common-area landscaping, parks, and community governance. There is no single master association billing every household uniformly across the plan's multiple subdivisions, so confirm the exact dues, reserves, and CC&Rs for your specific section before offering. The resale package is your source of truth.
What is the average days on market in Mission Hills?
Homes sold across the Mission Hills ZIP area (89002/89074) over the past hundred days took a median of about 15 days from list to accepted offer, per Las Vegas REALTORS MLS statistics — one of the fastest paces in Henderson. At 15 days, well-priced homes in the top school zones go under contract within the first weekend; sellers with a realistic list price rarely carry the sign two weeks.
What schools serve Mission Hills?
Mission Hills is served by well-regarded Clark County School District campuses: Elise L. Wolff Elementary (9/10 on GreatSchools), Del E. Webb Middle School (7/10), and Coronado High School (7/10). Charter options include Doral Academy of Nevada (9/10) and Somerset Academy (8/10). Henderson International School anchors the private tier. Verify your exact zoning for any specific address before writing an offer — CCSD boundaries shift block by block.
Is Mission Hills a good place for families?
Yes — Mission Hills is one of Henderson's most dependable family addresses. The fundamentals: Elise L. Wolff Elementary zoned at 9/10 on GreatSchools, Mission Hills Park with playgrounds and basketball, Cornerstone Park's lake and fishing minutes away, Stephanie Street shopping, and Henderson's top-ten national safety ranking per FBI Uniform Crime Reporting data. The $400K–$700K range keeps the budget workable for most growing families.
What is the rental market like in Mission Hills?
Solid and consistent. Single-family homes in Mission Hills typically rent for about $2,000–$2,600 monthly per Las Vegas REALTORS rental tracking, with school-zone streets commanding the upper end and minimal vacancy. Investors value the equation: entry pricing from the $400Ks, HOA dues of $50–$130 monthly, and a 2,800-home plan that stays liquid. The City of Henderson tightly regulates short-term rentals — plan long-term before underwriting nightly income.
Is there new construction in Mission Hills?
Very little — Mission Hills built out between 1996 and the mid-2000s, so the market is essentially all resale. Occasional updates and infill lots trade, but the 2,800+ homes are overwhelmingly established resale. Buyers wanting new construction in the same price range typically look at Cadence, Henderson's newest master plan about fifteen minutes away with multiple national builders competing on incentives that change monthly.
What amenities does Mission Hills offer?
Mission Hills Park anchors the in-community recreation with playgrounds, a basketball court, and walking paths. Cornerstone Park — a 25-acre City of Henderson park with a lake, fishing, trails, and a dog park — sits about five minutes east. The Stephanie Street commercial corridor and Horizon Ridge Parkway bring shopping, dining, and medical facilities within ten minutes, and the Galleria at Sunset mall is about ten minutes north.
How is the commute from Mission Hills?
Efficient from most directions. The I-215 beltway and US-95 are both within ten minutes of the community, putting Harry Reid International Airport about 20 minutes away and the Las Vegas Strip about 20 minutes via I-215 to I-15. The Water Street District in downtown Henderson is about ten minutes east, the Galleria at Sunset ten minutes north, and Lake Mead about fifteen minutes east via Lake Mead Parkway.
Is Mission Hills safe?
Yes. Mission Hills is served by the Henderson Police Department, and Henderson consistently ranks among the safest large cities in the United States per FBI Uniform Crime Reporting-based comparisons. Inside the community, three decades of settled, owner-heavy streets and an engaged HOA keep typical incidents to suburban property matters — vehicle break-ins concentrated near retail corridors, not residential blocks. The 76% homeownership rate further anchors neighborhood stability.
When were Mission Hills homes built?
Most homes were built between 1996 and the mid-2000s by national builders during Henderson's growth era. Floor plans range from 1,400 to 3,200 square feet across single-story and two-story configurations. Many owners have upgraded kitchens, flooring, and outdoor living spaces — inspect to condition rather than build year. Systems from this era (HVAC, water heaters, roofs) may be approaching replacement windows for 2026 buyers, so budget accordingly.
What should I know before buying in Mission Hills?
Four things move real money here. First, age: homes built 1996 to mid-2000s mean HVAC, roof, and water-heater timelines belong in your inspection budget. Second, school zoning: Elise L. Wolff Elementary at 9/10 anchors the value, but zone boundaries shift block by block. Third, HOA variance: dues run $50–$130 monthly by subdivision — confirm reserves and any special assessments. Fourth, market pace: at 15 median days, pre-approval must be in hand before you tour.
What down payment do you need to buy in Mission Hills?
Most Mission Hills buyers put down 5% to 20%. Conventional loans start at 3% down for qualified buyers, FHA allows 3.5% across most of the community's price spectrum, and VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans. On the $492,440 ZIP-area median, plan roughly $24,620 (5%) to $98,488 (20%); entry single-story homes near $400,000 need as little as $14,000 down. Jumbo financing is rarely needed — the plan tops near $700K.

Mission Hills HOA dues run $50–$130 per month across the community's multiple subdivisions — one of Henderson's more affordable structures. Fees cover common-area landscaping, parks, and community governance. There is no single master association billing every household at the same rate, so dues are subdivision-specific.

PEOPLE ALSO ASK
What Else Do People Ask About Mission Hills?
These are the eight queries Mission Hills buyers actually type into Google and AI assistants — answered in two or three sentences with specifics you can verify: community facts from the City of Henderson, prices from Las Vegas REALTORS, and school ratings from GreatSchools.
Is Mission Hills part of Las Vegas or Henderson?
Henderson. Mission Hills is a family community inside the City of Henderson, with Henderson police, fire, water, and city services. Mailing addresses say Henderson, NV — "Mission Hills" is the community's name, not a separate municipality.
What ZIP codes cover Mission Hills?
Mission Hills spans ZIP codes 89002 and 89074, south of Lake Mead Parkway and east of Stephanie Street per community records. The specific ZIP depends on which section the property sits in — and ZIP-level statistics always blend in some neighboring Henderson territory.
How old are homes in Mission Hills?
Most homes were built between 1996 and the mid-2000s by national builders. Floor plans range from 1,400 to 3,200 square feet in single-story and two-story configurations. Many owners have upgraded kitchens, flooring, and outdoor spaces — inspect to condition, not just build year.
Does Mission Hills have a golf course?
No — Mission Hills is a family residential community without an in-plan golf course. The nearest Henderson golf options include the Legacy Golf Club in Green Valley (public, about fifteen minutes northwest) and Rio Secco Golf Club at Seven Hills (semi-private, about ten minutes east).
Is Mission Hills walkable?
By Las Vegas standards, moderately: Mission Hills Park, neighborhood walking paths, and the Stephanie Street corridor give real walking destinations, but the community is fundamentally suburban — most households drive for shopping, dining, and daily errands.
How far is Mission Hills from the Strip?
About 10 miles — plan roughly 20 minutes via I-215 to I-15 northbound, depending on time of day. Harry Reid International Airport is about the same distance, also roughly 20 minutes via the I-215 beltway.
Is Mission Hills a good investment?
The fundamentals favor it: a built-out plan with no new supply, a 9/10 elementary school zone that anchors tenant and resale demand, economy HOA dues of $50–$130 monthly, and a 15-day median market pace that proves liquidity. Returns still depend on the section and the buy price.
Are there 55+ communities in or near Mission Hills?
Mission Hills itself has no age-restriction component — the single-story sections are popular with downsizers and empty-nesters but are open to all ages. Sun City Anthem and Sun City Macdonald Ranch, both about fifteen minutes south, offer dedicated 55+ amenity packages if that matters to your search.
