Nevada’s population has grown more percentagewise than any other state in the country from 1970 through 2025, according to a new report.
The Visual Capitalist study, which used U.S. Census Bureau data, has Nevada growing a whopping 572 percent over 55 years, beating out Arizona (329 percent), Florida (246 percent) and Utah (234 percent). The report outlined some of the factors believed to be the main drivers of the growth.
“The state’s transformation was largely fueled by Las Vegas evolving from a tourism-centered economy into a broader metropolitan hub with expanding healthcare, logistics, construction, and business sectors,” reads the report.
