Paradise, Nevada

Paradise is a census-designated place located in Clark County, Nevada. As of the 2000 census, the CDP had a total population of 186,070. Estimates place the 2004 population at 221,000 (Rand McNally). An unincorporated township, it is governed by the Clark County Commission. While outside of the Las Vegas, Nevada city limits, it contains most of the Las Vegas Strip, as well as McCarran International Airport. Therefore, many tourists visiting "Las Vegas" actually spend all of their time in Paradise. The township was created primarily to prevent the City of Las Vegas from annexing the Strip.
