"We have a larger population base and you have more children being born. As those children age, if they want to stay in the community they grew up in or they’re comfortable in, then they’ll be taking those jobs and you don’t have the need for importing workers."

- Nevada State Demographer Jeff Hardcastle, explaining why even with Las Vegas in economic recovery there won’t necessarily be a wave of workers being imported into the state. He also made the point that Nevada’s unemployment rate is still above the national average and those unemployed workers need to be absorbed too.
