CBER Population Forecast: Clark County's Path to 3 Million Slows by a Decade

UNLV's Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) updated its long-term population forecast for Clark County, Nevada, projecting the region will reach 3 million residents by 2055—a decade later than previously expected. The revised report attributes the deceleration to slowing net migration, lower birth rates, and an aging demographic. Local infrastructure agencies, including the Southern Nevada Water Authority and Regional Transportation Commission, will adjust long-range resource and transit planning based on the new projections.
