Happening in Henderson: Secrets, Scarcity, and Seventy-Degree Februarys

Welcome to Happening in Henderson, the weekly reality check for life in Nevada's second-safest city where hosts Mark and Joleen cut through the suburban gloss to deliver the local news that actually impacts your commute and your wallet. In this episode, we dive into the City Council's lack of transparency regarding the federal detention budget, the Clark County School District's "death spiral" as enrollment drops and staff members face surplus, and the truth behind why new staggered school start times are really about a shortage of yellow buses. We provide a balanced look at the Henderson real estate market--from MacDonald Highlands luxury to the "stucco box" reality--while highlighting new local developments like The Cliff "anti-mall" and the arrival of Zippy's. Whether you're navigating the endless construction on Boulder Highway, tracking the Golden Knights' road trip, or just wondering why it's 77 degrees in February, we offer a grounded, slightly cynical, and thoroughly informative guide to everything happening in the 702.
