In less than 100 years after its founding, the fast growing Las Vegas became the 28th largest city in America, home to vast suburbs and single family home neighborhoods that enlarged the population of the surrounding Clark County to 1.8 million residents. Today, Las Vegas is the biggest city in Nevada and the state’s economic center, containing nearly three quarters of the state’s population and hosting tens of millions of tourists every year. With such massive growth over its relatively short history, Las Vegas relies heavily on Nevada’s extensive system of highways and its commercial fleet of trucks to carry much of its cargo into and out of the city. This network is supported by shipments arriving and departing McCarran International Airport, and to a lesser extent, a modest railroad freight capacity. Because of the high volume of passenger and freight traffic moving into and out of the city, there are a variety of options for carriers shipping cargo throughout the Las Vegas region and beyond.
