Characteristics

Transportation

Centennial Hills is a fairly convenient part of Las Vegas for traveling by car. Parking is generally easy. However, Centennial Hills is not very transit friendly. Thankfully, there are around 10 bus lines crossing the community, and most houses are very close to a bus stop. The bike is a somewhat poor mode of transportation in Centennial Hills since the topography is not particularly flat, and the cycling infrastructure is not especially comprehensive. Most homes for sale in this area are located in areas that are also not especially conducive to pedestrians because few common errands can be run without needing to get in a vehicle.

Services

Locals will find that wherever their home is situated in Centennial Hills, primary schools are nearby. On the other hand, there are only a few high schools and consequently they can be an extended distance away. Residents can choose between public and private schools at both the elementary and high school level. As far as food is concerned, it is rarely practical for home buyers in Centennial Hills to do their groceries as pedestrians. In addition, a restaurant is often just around the corner, for example along Farm Road, and a limited selection of cafes can be found as well.

Character
