On May 13, 2003 the Los Angeles Times reported that "hundreds of Jews pour into Las Vegas each month, primarily to feed a shortage of doctors, teachers, accountants and other professionals created by the transformation of the once-small tourist town into the nation's fastest-growing metropolis... The Jewish community grew by nearly 20,000 residents, or 35%, to 75,000 from 1995 to 2000, according to the American Jewish Year Book, and is estimated to have crossed 80,000 this year, giving Las Vegas a Jewish population bigger than those of either Orange or San Diego counties... Where once Jews made up just a tiny fraction of the population in Nevada's Clark County, they are now approaching 5%, about double the national average."
