LVGEA says Nevada needs to grow its middle class

A shrinking middle class poses a threat to Nevada’s economic growth, according to Jonas Peterson, CEO of the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance. The Pew Research Center classifies middle-class citizens as singles who make between $24,000 and $73,000 or a family of four that makes between $48,000 and $145,000. In 2000, Nevada’s middle class made up 57 percent of the population. In 2016, it was 52 percent. Jonas Peterson
