Blue Diamond sits at the western edge of the Las Vegas Valley, a small unincorporated community of 266 people just 25 miles from the Strip. It's a PO Box Only Zone. Despite having rural carrier routes, there's no alternative to PO Box mail delivery for this ZIP code. The post office maintains 226 boxes for 135 households, a 1.67x adoption rate that shows the post office also serves surrounding areas beyond the census boundary.
The median age here is 55, and the demographics tell a clear story: retirees and established professionals who chose quiet desert living over Las Vegas sprawl. Nearly 30% of workers telecommute, one of the highest rates you'll find anywhere. With a median household income of $85,227 and homes valued at $633,100, Blue Diamond attracts people who can afford to live wherever they want.
Homeownership dominates at 87% (118 of 135 homes). Only 17 units are rentals. Zero seasonal or vacation properties exist here. These are permanent residents who made a deliberate choice. Education levels run high: 57.5% hold bachelor's degrees or higher, well above national and state averages.
Street names like Cottonwood Drive, Arroyo Road, and Diamond Street reflect the desert landscape. The alias "Old Nevada" appears in USPS records as a recognized but non-mailing name, a nod to a former attraction. Summerlin South is less than a mile away, Enterprise about 4 miles, connecting this rural enclave to suburban Las Vegas while keeping its distinct character.
Street names reflect desert geography and small residential subdivision character.
