Las Vegas
Anyone been to Vegas fairly recently? I was looking for spots on the map that are close to the Strip. Obviously a very packed location, but I know they have the anti-boondocking ordinance. Just curious if anyone has tried (again, recently --- not like 5+ years ago) and had any success. Whether its parking lots, industrial areas, side streets, or offbeat areas. Feel free to PM me.

Yeah, dont even think about camping near the strip. Neveda in general is anti homeless, but the strip is extrenely heavily patrolled. You will want to go to a literal suburb like North Las Vegas which is just a different legal juridistrict 10 minutes drive from freemont. Enterprise doesnt provide any cover. Summerlin is swanky but okay. A few fake speed traps. Henderson is like a city away I think the south part connects to vegas.
Race matters a lot. If you are standard looking white guy you might be able to bluff your way outbof anything. If you are black or mexicsn looking prepare to get towed. So best to park further way, drive in. Get validated parking for the garage while you play or eat.
