Back in 1996, the UNLV’s Center for Business and Economic development projected that Clark County would have 2.26 million residents by 2024. Turns out they weren’t far off as this year the same report, the 2024-2060 Population Forecasts has the county’s population at 2.41 million, so 26 years ago they were only off by approximately 147,000 residents.

UNLV has released projections for Clark County's population covering the next 35 years. The university's Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) on Wednesday published its 2024-2060 population forecasts.

Clark County is expected to hit 3 million residents in 2042, according to a new UNLV report. The county’s population is expected to grow “steadily” in the near future, adding approximately 38,414 residents to its population in 2024 and continue growing at more than 1 percent per year up until 2039 when it will have 2.9 million residents, said Andrew Woods, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research at UNLV.

North Las Vegas and Reno continue to battle for a spot as the third most populated city in Nevada, according to a new U.S. Census Bureau data. North Las Vegas was once a bootlegging settlement, and Reno in the northern part of the state was once known as “cow county,” but both cities have changed their image and economy over time — and size in recent years.

In 11 years, North Las Vegas went from the brink of bankruptcy to a rapidly growing economy with millions of square feet of industrial and commercial space and big plans for more. In one of his final interviews as North Las Vegas city manager, Ryann Juden, the key architect of the city's resurgence, talked about how the municipality turned around the economy and his plans for the coming years.

UNLV research shows a decline from the pandemic surge of Californians moving to Nevada.

According to figures from the Las Vegas Realtors trade group, the median price for an existing home in Southern Nevada is $465,000, up 9% from the same time a year ago and nearing an all-time high of $482,000. As high as our home prices here seem, Stephen Miller, a professor of economics at UNLV, says homes are actually a bargain here compared to many other cities in the western United States.

Just as international migration soared in other states, it dropped precipitously in Nevada. Clark County, home to the tourist-magnet city of Las Vegas, saw a decrease of 58%, the biggest among counties where a half-million or more people live, Census Bureau figures show.
