Prostitution in Las Vegas

Prostitution is definitely illegal in the city of Las Vegas, but a number of counties in Nevada have legalized the world’s oldest profession so legal prostitution is only about 60 miles outside of Sin City. But of course, Las Vegas has far more than its fair share of prostitutes working within the city, so if you are willing to take the risk and you know where to look you should have no problem finding one, or at least someone who wants your money.

The legal brothels

There are around 30 legal brothels operating in Nevada at the moment, and the majority of them are in the northern part of the state near Reno and Carson City. The giant Nye County just north of Las Vegas has fewer than 50,000 residents and also has legal brothels, so this is where you’ll be headed if you don’t want to drive for a whole day.

Nye County’s largest city of Pahrump is home to two of the more famous legal brothels in Nevada, and it’s about 60 miles northwest of Las Vegas, but Amargosa Valley, Beatty, Crystal, Death Valley Junction, and Scotty’s Junction are small towns that each have a legal brothel if for some reason you want to drive a bit further than to Pahrump.

How it works in the legal brothels

Guests enter into a bar or lounge area and generally all the girls working at the moment are asked to line up and introduce themselves. The guest can choose immediately or he can order a drink from the bar and take his time choosing as some of the girls might do more to convince him of their charms. After the guest and the girl pair up they’ll go back to her room and negotiate a price in private for the services requested.

The unofficial minimum price is $100, but $200 to $300 is the common minimum for most of the girls for intercourse or about 30 minutes of fun. Former and current porn stars sometimes base themselves at the brothels for a week or two at a time, and they can charge $1,000 or more. Guests should negotiate everything up front if they have something special in mind. Most girls don’t kiss on the mouth, but these girls are obviously not shy so who’s to say what a bit more money might buy?

After the price is negotiated, the guest is asked to pay that amount in advance, and the girl will take the money back to the cashier before the real fun begins. Tips are extra at that point, but you should realize that the girl usually only gets half of the negotiated price and the house gets the other half. If the guest arrived in a taxi or limo the driver will usually get a cut of the total too, so the girls appreciate extra tips.

The two closest brothels to Las Vegas

• Chicken Ranch – This brothel has operated near Pahrump since 1976 and it’s the most famous one near Las Vegas. There are 17 beds and a few theme rooms for people whose fantasies and budget can accommodate a bit more. For more information check out the official Chicken Ranch site.
  
• Sheri’s Ranch – This is newer and more upscale than the Chicken Ranch and features tennis courts, a spa, a swimming pool, volleyball court, and a sports bar. There is also a Bachelor’s Party Room with stripper poles and a foam machine. For more information check out this NSFW link to Sheri’s official website.

Getting to Pahrump

Both of the brothels in Pahrump will pick you up from your hotel for free and drop you back there for free as well. Information on doing this can be found on their websites. Part of the reason they generously will chauffer you around is the brothels have deals with taxi and limo drivers whereby the driver will get a percentage of whatever a guest spends, so by them picking you up the brothel avoids having to pay another driver. If you have a rental car you can obviously drive out there yourself, but don’t expect a discount by doing it.

Illegal prostitution in Las Vegas

More than in most other American cities, prostitution is tolerated in Las Vegas, for the most part. But that isn’t to say there aren’t risks involved, because there definitely are. Mixed in with the honest prostitutes are plenty of people whose main goal is taking advantage of a tourist that is knowingly entering in to an illegal transaction, and will have no recourse when things don’t turn out the way they hope.

Finding prostitutes in Las Vegas

They are out there and easy to find, but it’s nothing like prostitution in Amsterdam where the girls on are public display behind the infamous red-lit windows of the Red Light District. There is little streetwalking in most of Las Vegas, in spite of what movies might have you believe. There are a few areas, just as there are in most large American cities, where hookers and customers can find each other in public, but the majority of transactions in Las Vegas don’t begin this way.

If you look like you’ve got a lot of money and are looking for a good time, a girl might find you if you hang out in one of the hotel bars. This can lead to a variety of misunderstandings and is also one of the ways unscrupulous people can get a lot of money off a visitor by doing nothing in return.

By far the easiest way to find available prostitutes who work in Las Vegas is through the many newspapers that fill various street boxes and newsstands up and down the Strip and in the Downtown area. They call themselves “bachelor’s guides” or something like that, and they are basically filled with ads from “escorts” or “models” and such. In recent years people have begun hiring low-wage workers to try to hand these out to people on the sidewalks or the Strip.

The ads are rarely subtle or clever. They’ll often use a photo of a famous model or porn star under a generic name like Angel or Sapphire, but of course the girl might only vaguely resemble that photo if they resemble it at all. The ads all have phone numbers and occasionally website addresses, so contacting them is straightforward.

It’s hard to say what one’s chances of being hustled are calling a girl this way. Chances are the girl won’t look nearly as good as the photo, but chances are also pretty good that she’ll show up when you call and will be ready to perform in exchange for your money. If you get ripped off using one of these services they know you can’t report them to the police, so it’s up to you to be careful and take your chances if this interests you.
