Two of the three casinos in Primm, on the NV/CA border, have shut down, and the third is on the brink, threatening to close the town: https://www.hcn.org/articles/can-the-last-casino-in-primm-nevada-save-a-desert-community/
Very sad. I have so many memories. When we lived in CA, Primm was our base for exploring Mojave National Preserve, several times a year. Haven't been back since moving to NM, but I hope they manage to keep the town running.
