Northwest Area Command (NWAC) opened in December 2008 and is in the northwestern part of the Las Vegas Valley. It is bordered by the Sheep Mountain Range to the north, Decatur Blvd. to the east, Lake Mead and Cheyenne boulevards to the south and stops at Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area to the west. NWAC serves the outlying communities of Mount Charleston, Indian Springs, and Creech Air Force Base, which are served by the Resident Officers assigned to the Area Command.
