*’clark county’ is a ‘county’ located in the ‘american state’ of ‘nevada’*
.
As of the 2010 census, the population was 1,951,269, with an estimated population of 2,000,759 in 2012.
It is by far the most populous county in Nevada, accounting for nearly two-thirds of its residents.
Las Vegas, Nevada’s most populous city, has been the county seat since the county was established.
The county was formed by the Nevada Legislature by splitting off a portion of Lincoln County on February 5, 1909, and came into existence on July 1, 1909.
The Las Vegas Valley, a 600 sq mi (1,600 km2) basin, includes Las Vegas as well as the other primary population center, the unincorporated community of Paradise.
Much of the county was originally part of Pah-Ute County, Arizona Territory before Nevada became a state.
The county was named for William Andrews Clark, a Montana copper magnate and U.S. Senator.
Clark was largely responsible for the construction of the Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad through the area, a factor heavily contributing to the region’s early development.
Clark County is today known as a major tourist destination, with 150,000 hotel rooms.
The Las Vegas Strip, home to most of the hotel-casinos known to many around the world, is located not within the City of Las Vegas city limits, but in unincorporated Paradise.
It is, however, located in the Las Vegas Valley.
(‘clark county’ is ‘co-extensive’ with the “las vegas–paradise, NV metropolitan statistical area”, a metropolitan statistical area designated by the *office of ‘management’ + ‘budget’* and used by the ‘united states census bureau’ + other ‘agencies’ for ‘statistical purposes’)
