The Center for Business and Economic Research at UNLV released a report on Wednesday projecting that from today’s 2.4 million residents, Clark County should grow to 3 million in less than 15 years and reach 3.4 million by 2060.

“It’s important that our community leaders are making decisions utilizing the most recent data,” Woods said.
