In the spring Nevada switches to Pacific Daylight Time {PDT} but Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so for the summer there would be no time difference between the two states.

What is the legal age for a teenager to move out of their parent's house in Nevada State?
Having a child has nothing to do with it. Having a child does not make a person emancipated. You are still a minor until you turn 18. But Nevada does have laws that allow a minor to petition the court for a decree of early emancipation. You have to be at least 16 to file a petition, and you'll have to prove, among other things, that you are capable of financially providing for you and your child (and that means of support can not be public assistance). If it's granted (and it's not a quick and easy thing to get) then you'd be able to move out.
