Lake Mead is a man-made lake that lies on the Colorado River, about 24 mi (39 km) from the Las Vegas Strip, southeast of the city of Las Vegas, Nevada, in the states of Nevada and Arizona. It is the largest reservoir in the United States in terms of water capacity. Formed by the Hoover Dam on September 30, 1935, the reservoir serves water to the states of Arizona, California, and Nevada, as well as some of Mexico, providing sustenance to nearly 20 million people and large areas of farmland.At maximum capacity, Lake Mead is 112 miles (180 km) long, 532 feet (162 m) at its greatest depth, has a surface elevation of 1,221.4 feet (372.3 m) above sea level and 247 square miles (640 km2) of surface area, and contains 26.12 million acre feet (3.222×1013 L) of water.
The lake has remained below full capacity since 1983 due to drought and increased water demand. As of July 2019, Lake Mead was at approximately 40% of full capacity with 10.4 million acre feet (1.28×1013 L) of held water. It has been smaller than Lake Powell (the second largest US reservoir when both are full) since 2013.

Boulder City, NV - Greater Las Vegas Real Estate
Boulder City, NV is part of the Greater Las Vegas Real Estate market, lying just outside the Las Vegas Valley next to Henderson. It has the largest land area of any city in Nevada, yet it's population is just over 16,000. It was created by the federal government for the building of Boulder Dam, later renamed to Hoover Dam, but the worker homes were only meant to be temporary. To their surprise, after the dam was completed, many of the workers wanted to stay. Instead of their homes being torn down, they were sold.
So what does Boulder City offer that would make people want to stay? Is it the small town atmosphere and lifestyle, with residents voting to limit it's growth in spite of the huge gains in development next door in the Las Vegas Valley? The attachment to preserving it's history? It's unique neighborhoods with a variety of home styles and custom homes? The amazing views of mountains in the Eldorado Valley or the Lake Mead views from the Hemenway Valley? Is it the access to all that Las Vegas offers, including a major international airport, but in a place often referred to as the Mayberry of the Las Vegas area.
Or is it the attraction from the many activities found around Boulder City? Like the many parks and community events held there. The train rides of the Nevada Southern Railway Museum. Hiking and biking trails or mountain biking and zip lining in Bootleg Canyon. All the water sports and cruises at Lake Mead, or canoe, kayak, paddle boarding and raft trips on the Lake Mead National Water Trail on the Colorado River below Hoover Dam. ATV and off-roading, skydiving, air tours, flight instruction and general aviation, or perhaps visiting a Ghost Town and gold mine in the nearby Eldorado Canyon. You can also stop in at the historic downtown for some food, a brew pub, or to explore the shops offering antiques to art and crafts and much more. Or you could just enjoy the Big Horned Sheep, Nevada's state animal, that like to call the Boulder City area home. Yes, there's quite a bit to do in this small town, whether you chose to call it home or for both visitors to drop by and Las Vegas locals to enjoy all that it has to offer year round,
Now while the population has been limited by choice, and also a limited amount of resale homes available, Boulder City does have a new home development for 2018. Boulder Hills Estates from Story Book Homes is underway. On build out it is proposed to add 127 new single and two story homes to the community, with current pricing starting in the $400k's and $500k's. For resale homes you'll find that generally the median pricing is above the Greater Las Vegas area, and also above the City of Henderson median. Of course the homes and lots with views will typically carry a premium, just as you would find in the Las Vegas Valley.
Even with the length of this video I couldn't possibly cover it all, but you will get a better idea of what can be found in and around Boulder City. The links below can help you explore a bit more online.

Boulder City Nevada
Hi, my name is Jennifer, with Desert Adventures, out of Boulder City, Nevada. And, Boulder City is the town that built the Hoover Dam. Initially, when the, when the government announced the building of the Dam, workers came from all over the United States, in effort to find a job-that was during the Great Depression. Housing was not available for the workers. Before Boulder City was built, perspective workers would live in Tent City, shanty towns, one of which being, on the Colorado River, called Rag Town. Conditions were hot, unsanitary, there was some deaths due to heat-related illness. Boulder City needed to be built.
Six companies, the company that built the Dam, as well as the federal government, made it a priority to build the town for the workers to live in. What their focus was, to provide a clean living and working environment for the Dam workers. The town was designed to house approximately 5,000 workers. The status of the workers on the Hoover Dam reflected in their house sizes, and locations. The most important employees were housed on the top of the hill, near the heart of town. Managers were housed just a little bit further down the hill. And, homes for manual labourers were located further down the hill, away from the pubic buildings and parks. Boulder City was originally built as a temporary town for the Hoover Dam workers. As you can see, it's still a vibrant city today. I'm Jen, with Desert Adventures, your premiere adventure company, located in Boulder City, Nevada.

Hoover Dam & Tour Review - EVERYTHING You Need To Know | Nevada Travel Vlog
Nevada Travel Vlog – The Travels Of Z exploring The Hoover Dam, A major tourist attraction in Nevada after Las Vegas because of the Hoover Dam Tours. Las Vegas to Hoover Dam is a very popular day trip. It only takes 40 minutes from Las Vegas to Hoover Dam. The Hoover Dam tours are also very popular. Hoover Dam water release is one of the primary attraction of this location, lot of people do the Hoover Dam water bottle experiment or sometimes with a basketball. There are several Hoover Dam documentary on different conspiracy about Hoover Dam’s construction or that the Hoover Dam will collapse after a major earthquake. There are two Hoover Dam tour available, I prefer the Full Hoover Dam tour instead of the Powerplant tour because it longer and gives you free access to the visitors center, which is otherwise an additional $10. If you have seen videos on American History then you’ve probably seen Hoover Dam pictures or Hoover Dam Lake – Lake Mead, the largest man made reservoir in United States. Hoover Dam Bridge is also a popular attraction. Hoover Dam is also a popular Hollywood movie set. Movies like Transformers, San Andreas, and Viva Las Vegas were shot here in Hoover Dam. Fallout new Vegas hoover dam was also a very popular topic after video game Fallout added Hoover Dam as a part of two major battle location.

Hoover Dam is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the U.S. states of Nevada and Arizona. Hoover Dam was constructed between 1931 and 1936 during the Great Depression and was dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Originally known as Boulder Dam from 1933, it was officially renamed Hoover Dam by a joint resolution of Congress in 1947. Hoover Dam construction was the result of a massive effort involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives. The dam was named after President Herbert Hoover.
Since about 1900, the Black Canyon and nearby Boulder Canyon had been investigated for their potential to support a dam that would control floods, provide irrigation water and produce hydroelectric power. In 1928, Congress authorized the project. The winning bid to build the dam was submitted by a consortium called Six Companies, Inc., which began construction on the dam in early 1931. Such a large concrete structure had never been built before, and some of the techniques were unproven. The torrid summer weather and lack of facilities near the site also presented difficulties. Nevertheless, Six Companies turned over the dam to the federal government on March 1, 1936, more than two years ahead of schedule.
Hoover Dam impounds Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States by volume (when it is full). The Hoover dam is located near Boulder City, Nevada, a municipality originally constructed for workers on the construction project, about 30 mi (48 km) southeast of Las Vegas, Nevada. The dam's generators provide power for public and private utilities in Nevada, Arizona, and California. Hoover Dam is a major tourist attraction; nearly a million people tour the dam each year. The heavily traveled U.S. Route 93 (US 93) ran along the dam's crest until October 2010, when the Hoover Dam Bypass opened.
During the years of lobbying leading up to the passage of legislation authorizing the dam in 1928, the press generally referred to the dam as Boulder Dam or as Boulder Canyon Dam, even though the proposed site had shifted to Black Canyon. The Boulder Canyon Project Act of 1928 (BCPA) never mentioned a proposed name or title for the dam. When Secretary Wilbur spoke at the ceremony starting the building of the railway between Las Vegas and the hoover dam site on September 17, 1930, he named the dam Hoover Dam, citing a tradition of naming dams after Presidents, though none had been so honored during their terms of office.

Day Trip: Lake Mead - Hoover Dam - Grand Canyon West
Since Dee & Scott had not seen the desert or the Grand Canyon, we decided to take them out of the city and on a sight seeing adventure.
We left town and headed to the Lake Mead Viewpoint, then to the Hoover Dam & Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, and then out to Grand Canyon West.
