Incorporated in 1946, North Las Vegas has successfully created an identity that is uniquely separate from its more famous neighbor to the south. North Las Vegas now home to 125,000 residents, comprises an area of nearly 80 square miles. A 30-year economic redevelopment plan, launched in 1990, has already begun to pay dividends. The city is already home to the bulk of Southern Nevada's manufacturing, distribution, and industrial facilities, and more companies are on the way, particularly in the older areas of the city, where an effort is under way to attract new business with an expanded redevelopment zone and public beautification efforts. Since 1990, more than $79 million in private investment and $28.2 million in public investment have occurred. With more than 1,300 acres of industrial parks, North Las Vegas is known as a business-friendly city, but residential development is also on the rise. In 2000, the city purchased a 1,200-acre parcel of land from the federal government, to be used for a Summerlin-style development of six upscale villages.
