A view of the Tuscany Retreat residential development in Boulder City Monday, Sept. 23, 2013. Builders, investors and others flocked to the rural town, 50 miles west of Las Vegas, to snatch up property. People lined up in Opatik’s office to pay hyper-inflated prices for homes in a town with legal brothels, a strong gun culture and no major industries. Prices were cheaper than in Las Vegas, and buyers figured they could commute.
