Summary

edit
Description

Primm is located on the I-15, on the Nevada side of the California-Nevada state line. It hosts a shopping outlet and a few casinos. For Californians heading for Las Vegas, Primm is a good milepost as Las Vegas is 30 miles (the Strip) or 40 miles (downtown) away. Also for Californians, Primm is the site of major traffic jams on Sundays as they return home from Las Vegas, as southbound I-15 loses a lane here.

One small building in Primm is actually located in California, and it is the only place in Greater Las Vegas where one can buy a state lottery ticket (California Lottery). Nevada does not currently offer a state lottery (due to possible conflicts with private casinos), but is considering the idea.

In the future, Primm may also get an international airport, to relieve Las Vegas's McCarran Airport which, despite expansions, is now over capacity.

Enroute from Chicago O'Hare to Los Angeles.
