Nevada could grow by 425,000 people by 2035, if all the major economic development plans now underway are fully implemented. That would mean a state population of nearly 3.3 million, based on a growth rate of point-six percent. Washoe County could see an increase of 83,926 during that same time frame through 2035. Carson City, Churchill, Douglas, Lyon, and Storey Counties could see a collective population increase of 25,670. State Demographer Jeff Hardcastle says the growth could be even higher with “buildout” at Tesla east of Reno and Faraday Futures in North Las Vegas.
