Primm was once known as “State Line” because of its location on Interstate 15 where it crosses the border between California and Nevada. The name was changed to avoid confusion with another city located in Nevada. Primm was chosen because of the last name of the original developer of the town.
Primm’s economy is primarily based on the three casinos located in the state that are mainly visited by visitors from Southern California as they are on their way to and from Las Vegas. Primm only has about 436 residents, and most of its full-time employees work for the casinos.
