        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.
