Looks like a growing retirement community there. Could I get there in my golf cart? ROLF

I doubt they will. Mesquite is a very different place.

A couple who are friends of mine chose to retire to Mesquite instead of TV due to the relative cost of living. They love it there, for both the golf and hiking in the mountains.

With an average high of 107+ in July and a record high of 123 and average lows in Dec/Jan below 30, I'm not sure it's my cup of tea.....

It is a nice town in a beautifully scenic area. Since it is quite dry there the temperature extremes are no big deal to me. Desert Southwest climate.

BTW the OP may appreciate knowing Mesquite boasts an unexpectedly nice library that I have used. Very clean, pleasant and surprisingly well appointed. Looks like they are adding to it! Mesquite breaks ground on new library

I brought it up because I was watching some long range golf drivers hitting their balls as far as they could and they said it was in Mesquite, Nevada but the terrain looked more like Arizona to me without the Joshua Trees though? Trees found in the Mojave Desert near Mesquite Nevada

That's because Mesquite is just about on the AZ line.

Was there much there? Some of these Nevada and other state places can grow quite quickly. Not as fast as the Villages however.

Wolf Creek (just north of Mesquite), is in my top 15 courses I've ever played.

Las Vegas, Nevada - Mesquite Courses - Wolf Creek Golf Resort -

The Villages Florida

Another advantage is that the slot machines, in an attempt to lure folks from Vegas...are 'looser.'

If you haven't done it yet, next time you are in LV consider playing the Wolf Course on the Paiute reservation NW of Las Vegas.

Have any of you that have visited the Mesquite area noted anything out of the ordinary in your travels?
