Las Vegas is the most populous city in the state of Nevada. The name Las Vegas is often applied to the unincorporated areas of Clark County that surround the city, especially the resort areas on and near the Las Vegas Strip. This 4½ mile stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard is mostly outside the Las Vegas city limits, in the unincorporated town of Paradise. Las Vegas is marketed as The Entertainment Capital of the World.
People moving to the Las Vegas Area tend to have an easy time finding employment and affordable housing. The overall cost of living is 20% below the national average, and apartment rentals are generally affordable.
