Laughlin residents have felt several earthquakes in the past, but they were not strong enough to do any damage. Flash flooding can occur, so, when it rains hard and unexpectedly head for the high ground fast, because if you're anywhere near the floodplain or on a dirt road, you and your car can be washed away, never to be seen again. This happens very rarely, so don't worry too much. Just stay inside an air conditioned building in the summer and away from dirt roads if you think it's going to rain. | | Crime in Laughlin is like any other tourist and casino hot spot. Burglaries, thefts and the occasional violent robbery can occur when you least expect it.

Don't get in their way and don't give them an opportunity to steal from you. Lock your car and hide your valuables. Don't let anyone see where you keep your money or how much money you have. It's none of their business.

Maybe you need a miracle. |

| Slot machines are the loudest noises that you'll suffer through in this town. And the only way you'll hear them is when you're in the casinos. Stay out of the casinos or go to your hotel room and you'll never hear them again. | | Bullhead City, Arizona is right across the river from Laughlin. It's a dusty city that you could imagine might blow away at any minute. And a lot of people wish it would. Laughlin has Bullhead City beat by a mile as far as attractive living spaces. Bullhead City seemingly has no trees and no living things except humans, which are rather dried out and colorless. Yes, sorry about the bad review, Bullhead, but that's the way it is. Another town near Laughlin is Mesquite Creek, Arizona. This is a super small town with mostly retired folks in it, so there's nothing more to say about that. Laughlin is the place to be in that area of the world, especially the casino area. That part of the city is full of life and bright with lights and happy faces. | | Western Arizona Regional Medical Center is the place to go to when you need medical care. They provide an ER, surgical facility, diagnostic imaging and inpatient and outpatient services and have 90 beds in their hospital. They're located in Bullhead City just across the bridge from Laughlin. | | Harrah's hotel and casino is the best! Take a break from gambling and eat at the buffet. Then go outside and take a boat ride or rent a jet ski. This place really is accommodating to families. Bring the kids and have a ball. |
| General comments | | | | | | |
| Laughlin is a small town that services the casinos. It's not a fancy town and no one will mistake it for a cosmopolitan center of commerce and trade. It's a working town with badly stocked small convenience stores and the help doesn't seem to care if buy something or not. People who aren't working at the casinos are just biding their time until their favorite TV show comes on. So, Laughlin, the town, is not very attractive, but it does differ from the casinos and hotels on the strip. They shine and have great food and (some)beautiful women working there. Quite a distinction. | | | | | | |
