Sunrise Manor, Nevada

Sunrise Manor is a census-designated place[2] in Clark County, Nevada, United States, located on the western base of Frenchman Mountain, east of Las Vegas.

[4] In 1957, North Las Vegas was planning for annexation of the area; the Clark County Commission did not approve of it and so created Sunrise Manor in May of the same year.

[5] By the time of the 1970 Census, the census-designated place of Vegas Creek was formed to the south of Sunrise Manor.

This proposed city would include Sunrise Manor and neighboring Whitney.

[7][8] According to the United States Census Bureau, the census-designated place (CDP) of Sunrise Manor (which may not coincide exactly with the town boundaries) has a total area of 33.4 square miles (86.4 km2), all of it land.

It is home of the Las Vegas Nevada Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which was dedicated on December 16, 1989.

Sam's Town Las Vegas, a casino and entertainment venue that is part of the Boulder Strip, is located in Sunrise Manor.
