By Ginny Reese A mother and her young son hiking in the desert The city has so much to offer that has drawn in new residents. From affordable housing and restaurants to outdoor life and night life, there is something for everyone. Las Vegas came out on top, and was closely followed by Phoenix, Denver, Austin, Atlanta, Houston, Orlando, Dallas, San Antonio, and Tampa. Alex Stechschulte and his partner recently moved to Las Vegas from Michigan. Stechschulte explained: "I decided to move to Las Vegas for so many reasons. I visited several times. Coming from Michigan, the winter is not amazing. I love the sunshine and blue skies. There are so many restaurants here and things to do. I love how worldly it is."
