The REMI model was incorporated into the yearly forecast of Clark County, Nevada’s population growth that was conducted by the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC), the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA), the Southern Nevada Regional Planning Coalition (SNRPC), the Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER) at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and a group of community demographers and analysts. After recalibrating the model to incorporate the most recent information regarding local employment growth and local investment projects, the corresponding forecast showed positive population growth throughout the range of the projections. This long-term population forecast remained consistent with previous forecasts, predicting Clark County’s population rises to approximately 2.67 million by 2035 and to around 2.90 million residents by 2060.
