ECONOMY AND JOB MARKET

Las Vegas remains one of the faster growing major metro job markets in the country, driven by steady
private sector growth. While gaming and hospitality are still key industries, the economy is now more
diversified, with strong activity in logistics, healthcare, construction, professional services, technology
support, retail, and food service.

Tourism and resort activity continue to support hiring, while industrial and business development across
Southern Nevada keeps expanding job opportunities for companies and small businesses alike.
