History
The Southern Paiute Indians, who were the first to occupy the area centuries ago, originally named Pahrump “Pah-Rimpi” or “Water Rock” due to the abundant artesian wells throughout the valley.
Pahrump was populated by the American settlers beginning in the late 19th century in the form of large ranch-style settlements, where ranchers grew cotton, alfalfa and raised livestock.
Interest in Pahrump increased during the 1960s, with the beginning of large-scale land developments and the introduction of telephone lines and a paved road into the Valley from Las Vegas.
