Fallout: New Vegas/My Kind of Town

My Kind of Town is a quest that you encounter

Summary

 * (Optional) Speak with Johnathan Nash about the people who attacked you.
 * Enter the Bison Steve Hotel, and obtain the information from Deputy Beagle.
 * Proceed to Novac through Nipton.

Primm
When you first enter Primm, you will be alerted by the NCR that there are convicts holed up in the eastern side of town. However, you need to get there. You can optionally attack the convicts on the roller coaster, but will need to enter Primm through the ground level.

When you cross the bridge, watch for three frag mines in a row. Disarm them then continue.

There should be two convicts patrolling the streets. They are best dealt with by a quick kill. From here, you can etner the Vicky and Vance casino to speak with Nash, or skip directly to the Steve Bison hotel to speak with Beagle.

Steve Bison Hotel
The steve bison hotel has two floors, with Deputy Beagle in the south-east corner of the first floor. The first floor contains several convicts on patrol, with the most powerful being the escaped convict leader, with an incinerator.

If you can pick the lock to the right of the entrance of the first floor, you can collect a key to the maintenance door. This allows an alternate route to rescue the deputy, but the enemy can still attack if they become alert due to combat.

Second floor
The second floor is note required to complete this quest, but you can find various helpful items. There is a gun cabinet where you may collect two random weapons, an armor case, and a few first-aid kits.

The new sherrif
When beagle returns to the Vicky and Vance casino, he will mention through dialogue that Primm is in need of a new sheriff. There are three candidates that will assist:

NCR
To get the NCR to assist, speak with Lieutenant Hayes in the western camp. He will assign a sheriff if there is an additional squad available. He will refer you to Major Knight at the Majove Outpost.

When travelling to Mojave outpost, you will likely encounter the Jackal gang at the Nevada Highway Patrol station (the first building on the right). If you decide to take a direct route rather than following the road, you will encounter scorpions instead.

Speak with Major Knight. If you have a barter skill of 20 or completed the two quests at the outpost, you can convince him to send reinforcements to Primm. Return to Hayes to initiate amalgamation.

The result of this option will result in higher taxes for Primm, but it will become part of a prosperous trading route. Regardless of which major faction you side with, it will remain open for business in the future.

Sheriff Meyers
Sheriff Meyers is located in the NCR Correctional Facility somewhere to the north east. If you are hostile towards the powder gangers, they will attack, requiring you to fight your way in.

Regardless of which method you choose, Meyers is sitting in the first room. When there is no further fighting, you can speak with him to convince him to become sheriff of Primm. He states he needs a pardon first, which may be obtained from Major Knight at the Mojave Outpost for 200 caps, or a speech check of 30.

Once Meyers is accepted, he will ensure its safety. It worst, there will be a few criminals killed without concrete evidence, but if the Legion tries claiming Primm, he will defend it to the end.

Primm Slim
Primm Slim is another option for sherrif, suggested as a possibility by Nash. With a science skill of 30, or with 3 fission batteries and 4 conductors, he can take control as sheriff.

While some criminals manage to get away, he is still an effective choice and will make an attempt to stop Caesar's Legion if they approach.
