I’m 42 and I live in northern Nevada born and raised. I’ve always traveled to Vegas regularly 2/3 times a year since I was a kid. And seeing what I consider my 2nd home town grow and change is wild at times. But since 2020 I’ve seen that Vegas has been on a slow decline and it’s been even more noticeable since this year. As an example I usually travel to Vegas in late April for my birthday and to see family and friends. I almost always stay at the same hotel but this time around I was told that 50% of the house keepers were to afraid to go to work due to ice raids and the other half had taken time off in protest of the current administration. So needless to say no clean towels for me. I can only see things getting worse as time goes on especially if Trump keeps wanting tariffs that will be a death blow to an entrainment town like Vegas. Wile yes Vegas is a hell hole and overpriced and it has lost its appeal with most people me included. The people of Vegas for the most are good hard working people and don’t deserve what is coming their way as just as it’s coming to hurt us all.
Well, 48% of Las Vegas voted for Trump so yeah. It's a very thin "most" I can empathize with.
