Henderson allows home occupations in residential zones under HMC Title 19 with a permit and business license. The use must be incidental with no outdoor storage, no non-resident employees, and limited external impacts.
HMC Title 19 permits home occupations in all residential districts when secondary to the residential use. Standards typically require: the business is conducted entirely within the dwelling or an enclosed accessory structure, no more than a limited percentage of floor area is used, no non-resident employees work on premises, no outdoor storage of materials or equipment, no alteration of the residential appearance, and no generation of noise, traffic, odor, vibration, or electrical interference beyond normal residential levels. A Henderson business license is required for any home-based business under HMC Title 4, along with a home occupation review. Prohibited home uses typically include auto repair, welding, kennels, restaurants, and retail walk-in sales. HOAs in Green Valley, Anthem, Inspirada, and MacDonald Highlands frequently add further restrictions or bans.
Operating without a home occupation permit or business license is a zoning and licensing violation: stop-work notices, administrative fines, and potential misdemeanor prosecution.
