I know many major cities have certain area's of town where a large number of people from a particular background set up shops and community halls.

Does Vegas have areas in the city that you can say is:
- China Town
- Little India
- Little Italy

I figure these are some good things to see within the city limits if the y exist besides the Strip and Downtown.

Yes we have a "china town" but it doesnt feel like a big city china town. Just a bunch of asian restaurants and massage parlors.

What area would the "China Town" be?

I figured it wouldn't a big one, probably just a block or two large

It's on Spring Mountain Rd. I'm not sure the exact boundaries but roughly between I-15 and Jones.

Chinatown and Koreatown both kind of interlap across a few miles it seems. From around Spring mountain/Jones to the west, all the way down near the Strip to the east.

The "China/Korea Town(s)" here is/are really spread out. Starts at Rainbow/Spring Mountain Rd and continues along Spring Mountain (including the side streets) until right before the I-15. There are also some Mediterranean, Indian, Japanese and Filipino establishments.

Unlike in NYC where Chinatown and Little Italy are right next to each other, it would be hard to walk the span of the "Chinatown" here.
