Seven Hills, Nevada

Seven Hills, Nevada is an affluent subsection of Henderson, Nevada. As a primarily guard-gated community, Seven Hills is home to the founder of eBay Pierre Omidyar, Mike Tyson, and others. It is known for its large homes and private drives.

Seven Hills is approximately 7 miles (11 km) from the Las Vegas Strip. It is home to Revere Golf Club and The Rio Golf Course. Seven Hills is located half of a mile east of the Henderson Executive Airport, which is mostly known for private jet business.

The 1,940-acre (7.9 km2) parcel southwest of Seven Hills was sold in 2004 for $557 million. Labeled as 'Inspirada', the area was to be used for "New Urbanism". A high-density, pedestrian-friendly, master-planned community, it was modeled after towns and neighborhoods built before urban sprawl took root in the United States. Part of the design was to keep Seven Hills and Inspirada as separate areas with no interconnecting roads.
