Cactus Trails Awareness
For Mountain's Edge
Protecting our community.
Damanding transparency.
This is not opposition to affordable housing—it is opposition to placing it in the middle of a master-planned community. High-density projects like Cactus Trails belong where infrastructure and services can support them, not in areas where they undermine homeowner investments, property values, and neighborhood character.
While affordable housing is urgently needed, it’s important for residents to fully understand the long-term impact of this project. With additional research and consideration, families may find options that provide more stability, safety, and overall benefit than what this development currently offers.

F.A.Q
Where will Cactus Trails be located in Mountains Edge?
Answer: Cactus Trails will be located within the existing Mountain's Edge neighborhood footprint. The project site sits on Cactus Avenue, between Buffalo Drive and Rainbow Boulevard. The parcel number is 176-27-401-013, and the land size is approximately 20 acres.
The land was sold by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to Clark County Social Services for $2,000, specifically for the purpose of building affordable housing. The actual market value of the land is estimated at $19,125,000.
Will Cactus Trails become part of the Mountain's Edge Master Association (MEMA)?
Answer: No, as of now, Cactus Trails is not part of the MEMA. However, discussions are currently underway between MEMA and Clark County to explore options for an agreement that aligns the design standards and lifestyle expectations with the broader community. More updates to come as talks progress.
How much are these homes selling for?
Answer: Prices are currently ranging from $260,000 to $299,000, depending on the model and features - and it all depends on inflation, supply costs for building materials, and other economic factors that may affect final pricing.
What income do you need to qualify to buy a home here?
Answer: Homes are aimed at households earning between $50,000 and $95,000 annually, with a typical qualifying income around $70,000. In addition, most lenders require a minimum credit score of 620 or higher to qualify for financing. These guidelines may evolve slightly, and we’ll keep you posted on any official updates.
