Centennial Hills

Centennial Hills is a neighborhood in northwest Las Vegas, named in 2001 through a public contest. It covers much of the city's growing northwest, with Lone Mountain inside its boundaries and the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument just to the north.

Parks and outdoors. Centennial Hills Park features an amphitheater and ice-age, fossil-themed trails, with the Centennial Hills Library next door. Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs and the Tule Springs Ranch Historic Site offer ponds, lawns and historic ranch buildings.

Housing. The area is largely made up of single-family neighborhoods, from production subdivisions to larger-lot homes, with townhome and condominium options closer to the main corridors.

Getting around. Interstate 11/US-95 and the 215 Beltway meet at the Centennial Bowl interchange, giving residents a direct route to Summerlin, downtown and the rest of the valley. Centennial Hills Hospital on Durango Drive opened in 2008.

Schools. High schools serving the area include Centennial, Arbor View and Shadow Ridge. Confirm zoning for any specific address with the Clark County School District.
