INFORMATION FOR SENIORS

Las Vegas Seniors

Sunny weather coupled with a favorable tax climate has made Southern Nevada an attractive
destination for retirees. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Nevada is getting older, experiencing
a 54 percent increase over the last decade in residents over the age of 62, and a 78 percent increase
in residents over the age of 85. In Clark County alone, 14.4 percent of the population is over the age
of 62 with Las Vegas having one of the fastest growing senior populations for a metro area.
With this steady growth of senior residents, there have been a number of organizations and programs
designed with the seniors in mind.
