Green Valley

Green Valley is one of Henderson's original master-planned communities. American Nevada Corporation began planning it in the 1970s and celebrated its grand opening in 1978, and the broader Green Valley area now covers about 8,400 acres across ZIP codes including 89074, 89014, 89012 and 89052.

Neighborhoods. Green Valley grew in phases, with Green Valley South beginning around 1985 and Green Valley Ranch in 1994. The original areas are known for mature trees, established streetscapes and a mix of single-family homes, townhomes and condominiums, many on larger lots than newer communities.

Shopping and services. Galleria at Sunset and the surrounding Galleria shopping district, along with The District at Green Valley Ranch, put shopping, dining and everyday services close to most homes.

Schools. The Green Valley area is served by Clark County School District schools, including roughly a dozen elementary schools plus middle and high schools. Confirm zoning for any specific address with the district.
