This is a newer planned community in the southeast part of the valley. It is located at Blue Diamond Rd. and Buffalo Dr. At least 20 builders are participating in this project. The community is being built on 3,000 acres and will comprise 12,500 residences when completed. Over 500 acres of open space will be featured. At the center will be a 320 acre regional park with baseball fields, multi-use sports fields and picnic and play areas. A centerpiece of this community will be a 80 acre western themed park. Also featured will be an American Indian encampment and a simulated archaeological site where kids can dig for ancient treasures.  10 builders are now selling at Mountain's Edge, including DR Horton, Concordia, US Home, Toll Bros, Lennar, Beazer, Woodside, KB Home, Pardee and Meritage/Perma-Built. Note that other than the Exploration Park, with 20 acres developed and 80 acres of open terrain, nothing in the way of the additional parks and amenities have been started. Some of the projected amenities have been eliminated with others on hold. Some current residents have complained with respect to these delays and changes.

Mountain's Edge is currently the best selling planned community in the Las Vegas area. Just over 6,800 homes have been completed out of 14,500 projected.
 

 Base prices for free-standing homes as of February 7, 2010 run from $139,490 to $531,975 with home sizes ranging from 1,346 sq. ft. to 4,035 sq. ft. Condos and townhomes range from $144,990 to $229,990 with sizes ranging from 1,345 sq. ft. to 2,502 sq. ft. Resales for the last 90 days reflect 190 free-standing homes sold ranging from $95,000 to $478,000 with a median selling price of around $171,000. Of the 200 properties currently listed, 148 are represented as short sales or bank owned/foreclosures. Resale free-standing homes have a median asking price of $84 per sq. ft. Tremendous number of sales over the last few months.

This may be the last of the planned communities as we are used to them in the Las Vegas area. Land prices have reached the point that builders have to maximize their use of land by building more homes on less land. The future will be, in general, more homes per acre with smaller lots compensated for by common area parks and other facilities. The elevation at Mountain's Edge ranges from 2,650 ft. to 2,740 ft. above sea level.

 I am  more than somewhat concerned as to traffic in this area. Blue Diamond Rd. is right now very congested toward the I15 at some times of the day. The 215, another ingress and egress from this community is also heavily traveled. Speed limits along Blue Diamond Highway have been recently reduced in response to traffic fatalities on Blue Diamond.
