Lol .....almost identical to my complaints to the lvcva for years . Too many drunk college kids making the strip a miserable place for gamblers. Finally someone listening ?0

well I would say the "sin city" atmosphere hasn't worked too well either! We used to always take our family to Vegas in the "90's" and spent lots of cash and had a blast. We never felt unsafe, and we certainly didn't have to avoid the strip for fear that pornography would be shoved down our throats.
Say what you will, and I'm sure all the porn purveyors are going to fight tooth and nail to keep it alive and well in vegas, but obviously the way Vegas is being promoted is not working. Its time to find a happy medium. Keep parts of the city for adults, but also have parts of the city that are family friendly, safe and promote good clean fun. It can be done, many cities are doing it already and don;t have the financial problems that Vegas is having.

Good article, exactly what I've been saying all along. Vegas will not recover without jobs, thus the housing market will not recover either. Investors are losing their shirts, and its hard for me to be sympathetic. They thought they were getting a good deal, who's laughing now uh? You thought nothing of the homeowners who were attempting to refi but denied because you were all standing in line to give banks your cash, now your in the position of losing the properties too!! hahaha
Now to JPR, you always have an issue with people who don't live in Vegas responding to articles. Many people have lived there prior and left but still have valid insight into the issues that plague that city. 200,000+ people have LEFT there, just check statistics with Uhaul and Penske truck rentals. That tells the true story, not CNN. They are trying to buffalo people AGAIN to go there and buy NOW before the prices go up. Don't listen to national media, read your local paper and you'll get the truth and nothing but the truth!

And you wonder why people have stopped coming to Vegas? Come on LVCVA.....can't you do better than this?

Ok Hard Rock...now you have an option. You can either continue to cater to the young crowd, who does not spend money gambling and causes alot of problems by being drunk and stupid the whole time they are there.....or.....
You can once again begin to cater to the rock n roll era crowd, which is what Hard Rock is supposed to be about. Most of your current patrons do not even know who half the musicians are who have donated wonderful items to be displayed in your establishment.
Its time for Vegas to return to its customer base, and it not the 20 somethings. Your money lies elsewhere, trust me! Let them have Miami and LA
