At PLAN’s request, the Center on Work & Community Development analyzed the economic contributions of Hispanic immigrants to Nevada’s economy, expanding on a study of the Las Vegas economy. This is an update of 2002 Center for Business and Economic Research report and 2004 Center for Work & Community Development report.

This analysis is focused on State totals and Clark County due to limited Census information on other counties in Nevada.
