  • Pahrump is the largest census-designated place by area in the entire contiguous United States, bigger than some states feel, at nearly 300 square miles.
  • Until the 1960s, the only phone in Pahrump was a radio transmitter stuck in a booth next to the local market, and zero paved roads led in or out.
  • Las Vegas casino legend Ted Binion secretly buried a massive stash of silver in an underground vault in Pahrump, a true buried-treasure story in the Nevada desert.
