Product Description
More than 37 million people visit Nevada each year, and an increasing number of them are deciding to stay. Nevada in Your Future is a complete relocation guide for this booming state that contains everything a prospective Nevada resident needs to know. Written in the Martins' trademark breezy, informative style, the book is aimed at job seekers, small-business owners, retirees, and snowbirds, covering all the essentials such as climate, population trends, job opportunities, schooling, living costs, economic trends, medical facilities, crime stats, and state laws. Because the state is famous for its advantageous taxes and pro-business climate, there's a special section written by a resident expert that discusses in depth how to incorporate in the state and/or move a small business there.

This book is very insightful for those who wonder what Nevada has to offer other than tourism and casinos. A must read if you are thinking about moving to this state!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all bad, not all good..., February 14, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Nevada In Your Future: The Complete Relocation Guide for Job-Seekers, Businesses, Retirees, and Snowbirds (Paperback)

This isn't a bad book, but the information is very broad, with not as many specifics as one might believe - or want. For exapmle, the book does not contain directions on how to obtain a work card to get a job in casinos, or what a work card is. Other info has nothing to do with Nevada but is still useful, like how to write a cover letter. The best info is the geographic info and the descriptions of the towns and real estate. The book's shortcomings deal with jobs and money issues (save real estate)Also, the book's writing style is very informal, to the point of dumbing down the material. Still, it's a pretty good place to start, but you'll want more specific info later.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful Guide to the Big Move to Nevada, June 22, 2006

By	Cowboy Bill "Cowboy Bill" (Nevada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nevada In Your Future: The Complete Relocation Guide for Job-Seekers, Businesses, Retirees, and Snowbirds (Paperback)

This author covers the essential aspects one must deal with in considering and making a move to the Las Vegas area. I read another book called "Craps Across America" that gave me insight into the daily casino life that one could lead after moving to the "Sin City" area. But this book gave me the practical knowledge that I needed outside of the gaming world in Las Vegas. I recommend this book for the practical knowledge it provides.
