If ever you’ve rated this city against others—perhaps on Twitter, home to many a rational discussion—you ought to check out the City of Las Vegas’ new Community Dashboard (communitydashboard.vegas) and size up our metropolis strictly by the numbers. Some of its figures, sourced by local research firm Applied Analysis, gaze inward—for example, the current population of Clark County is 2,205,207 souls—but if you really want to get freaky, you’ll use the site to compare Vegas to other cities around the country. There you’ll learn that we have a lower payroll tax than LA (1.48 percent versus 6.60 percent), but you’ll also find out Phoenix has a lower unemployment rate that we do (3.9 percent versus 4.8 percent), and that we’re neck-and-neck on per capita personal income. C’mon, it’s Phoenix! We can take’ em.
