Lincoln County Nevada Land and Water Rights future development will be shaped today by a number of factors.
Demographers say, the West is now, today, the most urbanized region of the nation (based on the percentage of the population living in cities), as well as the region experiencing the greatest population growth. Regional land planners can not find growth models in history to compare to what they believe is coming to Lincoln County over the next few years.

Tree Rings Tells us Drought is Not New or Unusual, the framers of the 1922 Colorado River Compact used a twenty year study, In particular, the tree-ring reconstructions show that the years 1905-1920 were exceptionally wet. Today it is estimated they over allocated the river in 1922 by one million acre feet. They thought they had more water than historic river flows indicate.
Since the original compact, demand has increased dramatically.
According to U.S. Bureau of Reclamation models based on a century of historical data Lake Mead and Lake Powell.
Those looking for safe haven, preservation and growth for their investment dollars are realizing that food and water, the basics to sustaining life have a big future. It is estimated that the world’s population will grow by another three billion hungry people over the next twenty five short years. There are two things that will not change, the world is not adding any more land and the planet is not adding any more fresh water. Those who own and control these limited resources have control and little long term risk, the future growth in demand is virtually guaranteed.
