Las Vegas Unemployment Flirts with 14 Percent!

13.9 percent is the number of unemployed in the Las Vegas metro area for September.  Is it really worse?  Considering Las Vegas highly entreprenuerial city, how many self-employed are without work and not included in these figures?  Some good news ahead?  City Center on the Las Vegas Strip will be opening in December and these numbers will slow the climb or possibly stagnate the unemployment rate.  The problem is – these jobs will be replacing the higher paid construction jobs coming to an end due to the projects completion.
