What Desert Greens Is Actually Like
The short version, then the details.
Desert Greens is a gated, age qualified community in Pahrump for residents 55 and older, built by Desert Green Properties starting in 2002 around its own 9 hole golf course.
With 297 homes total, it is a genuinely amenity rich community for its size, with a 6,000 square foot clubhouse that includes a kitchen, library, billiards room, card room and fitness center, plus an outdoor pool and heated spa, bocce and horseshoe courts.
I have been in Las Vegas since I was five, and Pahrump has long been the place valley residents think of for a slower pace and a real sense of community. Desert Greens is one of the more resort style age qualified options out there, condensed into a gated, walkable footprint.
This is an age qualified community for residents 55 and older, consistent with federal housing law for qualified senior communities.

Know the county services
Pahrump is in Nye County, not Clark County, so services, taxes and regulations differ from Las Vegas. It is worth understanding those differences as part of the decision.
What about schools?
Not generally a factor for this age qualified community, but if it matters to your situation, verify directly with the Nye County school district.

I’ve lived in Las Vegas since I was five years old. I’ve watched this valley grow from a small town into what it is now, and I’ve built my career in real estate here. If you’re thinking about a move, I’d love to talk it through with you.
