Clark County is located in the southern tip of Nevada.  It is the most populous county in the state, due to the large cities of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson.  A common misconception about Las Vegas is the actual size of the city itself.  Many housing developments are actually "outside" of the city and reside in unincorporated Clark County, at least on paper. However, those residents are bound only by the laws of the county as far as city ordinances, property taxes and so on.

The population estimate of 2005 puts the total population of Clark County at 1,815,700 people. Of that number, 1,752,240 live in the Las Vegas Valley urban area.  The annual population growth rate is  5.65%

Clark County has an unemployment rate of 4% and an annual job growth rate of 5.5% as of September of 2006, according to the latest government figures.
