List of brothels in Nevada

This is a list of the legal brothels in Nevada. They are arranged by name within location (the nearest town or named place) within each county that licenses such establishments.

As of June/July 2008 there were 28 legal brothels in Nevada. While prostitution is legal in parts of Nevada, it is illegal outside these licensed brothels. Prostitution is illegal under state law in Clark County, which contains Las Vegas and its metropolitan area. Other counties may choose to allow it, if they desire to. Currently Washoe County (which contains Reno), Carson City (an independent city), Douglas County, and Lincoln County ban brothels. Eureka County has no law on the books either permitting or prohibiting licensed brothels and currently has no brothels. The other countries permit brothels, but some of them do not currently have any active brothels.
