About Las Vegas

Las Vegas ZIP codes covered here run from the older neighborhoods around Paradise and Spring Valley to newer areas in Summerlin, Centennial Hills and Enterprise. Many addresses with a Las Vegas mailing address sit in unincorporated Clark County, so the county, not the city, handles permits there.

Who lives here

Across the Las Vegas ZIP codes we cover, 14.7% of residents are 65 or older, and the median age by ZIP code is between 30.7 and 63.75.

Homes and bathrooms

The median home here was built between 1976 and 2012, by ZIP code, and 58% of occupied homes are owner-occupied. Older homes can have narrower bathroom doors, older drain lines and full electrical panels, so ask installers to check all three before quoting. See walk-in tub sizes.

Water hardness

Las Vegas Valley Water District water averages about 280 parts per million of hardness, or 16 grains per gallon6. That is very hard water. It leaves scale on jets, faucets and door seals, so ask about a water softener or a tub with an easy-clean or self-cleaning jet system.

Permits

Permits for a walk-in tub depend on the work. In the City of Las Vegas, changing piping inside a wall or floor, replacing a water heater or adding an outlet needs a permit, while a straight fixture swap may not7. In Las Vegas, ask the City of Las Vegas Building & Safety Division or Clark County Building & Fire Prevention (for unincorporated areas). A licensed installer normally pulls the permit for you.

Paying for it

Original Medicare usually won't pay for a walk-in tub. Veterans can look at VA HISA grants. See all ways to pay.
