KEY TAKEAWAYS
The Peaks pairs roughly 800 guard-gated homes priced $1M–$4M+ inside the Summerlin master plan with a working village median near $898,550 per NREG closing data and Las Vegas REALTORS ZIP 89135 benchmarks, 55 median days on market, and Las Vegas city demographics per the U.S. Census. The takeaways below frame what makes this village distinct within Summerlin.

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.

Living in The Peaks means a 24-hour staffed gate, new-construction estates on elevated lots with Red Rock Canyon and Strip views, and direct trail access — five minutes from Downtown Summerlin per Howard Hughes Corporation, and ten from Red Rock Canyon's 195,819-acre conservation area.
The Peaks is known for being Summerlin's newest guard-gated luxury village — built from 2018 forward by premier builders including Toll Brothers, Shea Homes, and Taylor Morrison, with desert-contemporary architecture, elevated lots, and dual Red Rock Canyon and Strip views that older Summerlin villages cannot replicate.
California relocators who want new-construction guard-gated luxury at a fraction of Westside pricing, executives and physicians who value gated privacy close to Downtown Summerlin, and families targeting the valley's best CCSD trifecta — Bonner Elementary (9/10), Rogich Middle (10/10), Palo Verde High (8/10).
Mornings on Summerlin's 150+ trail miles with Red Rock Canyon visible from the ridge, afternoons at Downtown Summerlin's 125+ shops and restaurants five minutes away, and evenings either at TPC Summerlin fifteen minutes out or at the Strip's resort dining twenty minutes east.
The Peaks sits at the western bench of Summerlin in Las Vegas, near the intersection of West Charleston Boulevard and the Spring Mountain foothills. The village occupies roughly 320 acres at the highest elevations of the master plan, about 15 miles from the Strip and adjacent to the Red Rock Canyon corridor.
Quick Answer
Yes — if new-construction guard-gated luxury, top-rated schools, and Red Rock Canyon access top your list. The Peaks delivers Summerlin's newest village behind a 24-hour staffed gate, with Bonner Elementary (9/10), Rogich Middle (10/10), and Palo Verde High (8/10) as the zoned CCSD trifecta, direct trail access toward Red Rock Canyon ten minutes west, and Downtown Summerlin five minutes away. The trade-offs are real — combined HOA dues of $300–$700 monthly and a $1M+ entry threshold — but for buyers who value modern construction and outdoor lifestyle over maturity and centrality, few Las Vegas addresses compete.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for Las Vegas — the city containing The Peaks — the parent city holds 656,274 residents with a median household income of $66,820. Inside the gates, the profile inverts: community records show roughly 2,200 residents across 800+ households, a median age near 45, and average household income above $225,000.
The Census does not tabulate The Peaks as its own place, so citywide figures are the statistical backdrop — presented honestly as exactly that. Within the gates, our closing data shows a mix of California relocators trading coastal taxes for Nevada's zero, executives and physicians who work in the Downtown Summerlin corridor, families drawn by the Bonner-Rogich-Palo Verde school pipeline, and active-adult buyers in the Regency at Summerlin 55+ neighborhood.

POPULATION & GROWTH
The Peaks itself is still in active delivery — Howard Hughes Corporation began development in 2018 and multiple builder phases have completed or are finishing, pushing the village toward its 800+ home capacity. Its parent city keeps compounding: Las Vegas has added roughly 72,000 residents since 2010 per U.S. Census counts, and the Summerlin West corridor around the village remains among the most in-demand in the metro.
Inside the gates, growth will be structurally capped once the builder phases complete — 800+ homes across roughly 320 acres is the Howard Hughes Corporation plan, delivering scarcity that supports long-term ownership value. The surrounding 89135 corridor and broader Summerlin West continues to grow, providing the liquid market The Peaks values are benchmarked against.

LUXURY INVENTORY
Market Competitiveness
The Peaks is a deliberate luxury market — homes priced $1M–$4M+ with a 55-day median time to contract per NREG tracking. New-phase inventory moves faster than resale; cash offers are common above $2M, and jumbo pre-approvals are essential for financed buyers. No urgency pressure — thorough diligence wins here.
The Peaks isn't one-size-fits-all — it's six builder neighborhoods spanning $1M production luxury to $4M+ custom estates, with a lifestyle that rewards specific buyer types. Six profiles below match lifestyles to neighborhoods, followed by the honest pros and trade-offs our team walks every client through before a first tour.

THIS WEEKEND'S OPEN HOUSES
Open houses inside The Peaks require guard-gate coordination — the staffed entry means sellers show by appointment only, arranged through a licensed agent in advance. New-construction model homes have dedicated touring hours during active builder phases. Set up instant alerts or browse current listings and let us arrange gate-cleared showings.
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.
Explore relocation planningRELOCATION TIMELINE
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.
ECONOMY & JOBS
The Peaks runs on a professional economy: executives, physicians, remote tech workers, and entrepreneurs rather than a single anchor employer. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Las Vegas metro labor market remains historically strong, and community records put average household income inside The Peaks above $225,000 — roughly three times the Clark County median.

COMMUNITY COMPARISON
Weighing The Peaks against the valley's other guard-gated luxury addresses? This June 2026 side-by-side covers the metrics buyers ask about most.

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
Summerlin Parkway, West Charleston Boulevard, and the 215 Beltway put The Peaks at the center of the west valley's arterial grid. Mean Las Vegas commutes run about 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data — and most The Peaks destinations beat that comfortably, with the exception of Harry Reid Airport at about 30 minutes.

Quick Answer
Resale purchases in The Peaks close in 30–45 days through a Nevada escrow company; cash offers above $2M close in 7–14 days. New-construction closings tie to the builder's certificate of occupancy — 30–45 days from CO for move-in-ready inventory or 8–14 months for to-be-built contracts. Jumbo appraisals may add a week on high-value estates.
Quick Answer
Most The Peaks buyers put down 20% to 25%, since nearly all purchases clear the conforming loan limit and require jumbo financing. At a $1.8M working median, plan $360,000 (20%) to $450,000 (25%) — and have six months of reserves in addition to the down payment, as most jumbo lenders require them. VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans on qualifying properties. Get pre-approved by a lender experienced with Las Vegas luxury jumbo before touring.
The Peaks FAQ — 18 Answers
The Peaks runs from about $1,000,000 for production luxury homes to over $4,000,000 for custom estates. According to Las Vegas REALTORS ZIP 89135 benchmarks, Summerlin West sits in the high $700Ks — but The Peaks' guard-gated character prices well above that, with a working median near $899K per NREG closing data.
Yes — The Peaks operates a 24-hour staffed guard gate with security patrols, making it one of only a handful of guard-gated villages inside the Summerlin master plan. The gate, combined with elevated lots at the western bench of Summerlin near Red Rock Canyon, delivers privacy that open villages cannot replicate. All showings require advance gate coordination through a licensed agent.
Toll Brothers, William Lyon Homes (now Taylor Morrison), and Shea Homes are the headline builders in The Peaks, alongside other premier firms. All phases are governed by desert-contemporary architectural standards: clean lines, natural stone and stucco exteriors, open floor plans, and indoor-outdoor living spaces. We can match you to the builder section whose plans fit how you actually live.
The Peaks is primarily a new-construction village, with Howard Hughes Corporation beginning development in 2018 and multiple builder phases still delivering or recently completed. That means current building codes, energy-efficient HVAC, smart-home technology, and contemporary finishes throughout. Some resale inventory exists in earlier phases; availability shifts by builder release, so our team tracks active inventory continuously.
The Peaks is in ZIP code 89135 in western Las Vegas, positioned at the highest elevations of the Summerlin master plan. Downtown Summerlin is about five minutes away, Red Rock Canyon ten, the Strip twenty via Summerlin Parkway, and Harry Reid Airport thirty via I-215 South. Home prices run $1 million to $4 million-plus within the guard-gated village.
HOA fees in The Peaks run $300 to $700 per month, combining the Summerlin master-association fee with the guard-gate sub-association fee. Dues cover gate staffing, security patrols, common-area maintenance, and community amenities. Exact figures vary by neighborhood and builder phase, so request the full resale package — or the builder's HOA disclosure on new construction — before you write an offer.
The Peaks is zoned to outstanding Clark County School District campuses: John W. Bonner Elementary (9/10 on GreatSchools), Sig Rogich Middle School (10/10), and Palo Verde High School (8/10). Private options include The Meadows School (A+) and Bishop Gorman High School (A+), with Doral Academy Red Rock (9/10) anchoring the charter list. Verify zoning for any specific address before committing.
Both are guard-gated Summerlin luxury villages, but they serve different buyers. The Ridges ($2M to $20M-plus) is the ultra-luxury tier built around custom estates and Bear's Best golf. The Peaks ($1M to $4M-plus) delivers new-construction luxury from premier production and semi-custom builders at a more accessible entry point. If modern construction, current codes, and faster move-in timelines matter, The Peaks usually wins the comparison.
Property taxes in The Peaks run an effective rate of roughly 0.5–0.7% of assessed value per the Clark County Assessor, and Nevada caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3% under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.471. On a $1.8 million home that means approximately $9,000–$12,600 per year — a fraction of what comparable new-construction luxury estates carry in coastal California, where rates often exceed 1.1%.
The comparison is stark: California's top state income-tax rate is 13.3% per the California Franchise Tax Board — Nevada's is zero. A household earning $500,000 saves roughly $51,000 per year in state income taxes alone by relocating to The Peaks. Add the 3% primary-residence property-tax cap under NRS 361.471 and the savings compound over the hold period.
The Peaks connects directly to Summerlin's 150+ miles of trails, with paths leading toward Red Rock Canyon's 195,819-acre conservation area ten minutes west. The Peaks Park inside the village offers walking trails, playgrounds, open turf, and desert gardens. Fox Hill Park — one of Summerlin's most popular with zip lines and disc golf — is a short drive, and TPC Summerlin is fifteen minutes away for championship golf.
Custom and semi-custom opportunities exist in The Peaks' Grand Collection tier, where estates start at $2.5 million-plus on the largest lots with the most dramatic Red Rock Canyon views. Lot availability, architectural guidelines, and approved-builder requirements vary by neighborhood and phase. Nevada Real Estate Group monitors custom inventory across Summerlin's gated villages and can flag parcels that fit your build plans.
Guard-gated communities within a master plan like Summerlin have historically outperformed the broader market, with better value retention in downturns and stronger appreciation in expansions. The Peaks benefits from two structural advantages: scarcity (roughly 800 homes behind the gate) and new-construction quality that resale buyers pay premium prices to acquire without the costs and disruption of a major renovation.
Yes — families consistently rank The Peaks among Summerlin's best village options. Bonner Elementary (9/10), Rogich Middle (10/10), and Palo Verde High (8/10) represent some of the strongest CCSD zoning in the valley per GreatSchools. The guard-gated setting means no through-traffic on residential streets, the trail system supports active family lifestyles, and Downtown Summerlin is five minutes away for after-school errands and dining.
Four things move real money here. First, HOA tiers: combined master and sub-association dues run $300–$700 monthly — confirm the exact split for your specific neighborhood. Second, builder-phase diligence: resale versus new construction carries different contingency timelines and warranty coverage. Third, view premiums: Red Rock Canyon and Strip views command $100,000–$500,000+ above comparable interior-lot homes. Fourth, call (702) 637-1759 — with roughly 800 homes and custom variation across six neighborhoods, comp selection requires judgment.
Most The Peaks buyers put down 10% to 25%. At a $1.8 million median, plan $180,000 (10%) to $450,000 (25%) — jumbo financing kicks in above the conforming loan limit, where lenders typically want 20–25% down plus six months of reserves. VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans on qualifying properties. Get pre-approved by a lender experienced with luxury Las Vegas jumbo before touring, so you can move quickly when the right home appears.
Resale purchases typically close in 30–45 days through a Nevada escrow company; cash offers can close in 7–14 days. New-construction closings depend on the builder's delivery schedule — expect 30–45 days from certificate of occupancy for move-in-ready inventory, or 8–14 months for to-be-built contracts. Gate coordination for touring adds a day of lead time but not closing time.

These are the eight queries The Peaks buyers actually type into Google and AI assistants — answered in two or three sentences with specifics you can verify: market figures from Las Vegas REALTORS, school data from GreatSchools and CCSD, and community facts from the Howard Hughes Corporation plan record.
Yes — The Peaks is a guard-gated village within the Summerlin master plan, developed by Howard Hughes Corporation beginning in 2018. It sits at the western bench of the master plan near The Ridges and Red Rock Canyon, sharing Summerlin's trail network and the master-association HOA layer.
The Ridges is Summerlin's ultra-luxury tier ($2M to $20M+) built around custom estates and Bear's Best golf; The Peaks ($1M to $4M+) delivers new-construction luxury from production and semi-custom builders at a more accessible entry. Choose The Peaks for modern construction and school quality; The Ridges for peak custom estate prestige.
Two things: it's guard-gated (most Summerlin villages are not) and it's new construction from 2018 forward (most established Summerlin villages are resale-only). The combination of gated security, modern building standards, Red Rock Canyon views, and Rogich Middle School's 10/10 rating makes it the top family choice in the master plan.
Yes — multiple builder programs are active or recently completed, including Toll Brothers' Reverence and Regency at Summerlin, Taylor Morrison's Sterling Ridge and Westlyn, and Shea Homes' Azure. Availability shifts by phase; our team tracks every active program and resale continuously.
Yes — Toll Brothers' Regency at Summerlin is The Peaks' dedicated 55+ active-adult neighborhood, offering single-story luxury plans and a private resort-style clubhouse with pool and fitness amenities inside the guard-gated village. It is one of the few 55+ programs in Summerlin behind a staffed gate.
The Peaks is zoned to Bonner Elementary (9/10), Rogich Middle School (10/10 — highest in Summerlin), and Palo Verde High School (8/10) per GreatSchools. Bishop Gorman High School (A+) is the premier private option fifteen minutes away, and Doral Academy Red Rock (9/10 charter) is ten minutes from the gate.
About ten minutes — The Peaks sits at the western bench of Summerlin, the closest guard-gated village in the master plan to Red Rock Canyon's 195,819-acre conservation area managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The Summerlin trail network connects directly from the village to canyon-boundary trailheads.
Three reasons: new-construction guard-gated luxury at roughly a third the cost of comparable Westside estates, zero Nevada state income tax versus California's 13.3% top rate, and a school pipeline (Rogich 10/10, Palo Verde 8/10) that rivals what coastal buyers expect. The tax savings alone fund most relocations within a few years of ownership.

Every statistic on this page is sourced from a primary or government dataset, refreshed monthly. Because The Peaks is roughly 800 homes inside a larger ZIP corridor, we distinguish village-level working figures (from NREG closing data) from ZIP-area benchmarks — and omit neighborhood-level medians that small samples cannot support. Follow any link below to verify a figure.
Methodology: Listing data is sourced via Repliers IDX feed (Las Vegas MLS) and refreshed every 15 minutes. Demographic and economic data are pulled monthly via Census/BLS APIs. School data is refreshed quarterly. All comparisons are like-for-like (same metric, same time period).
