No, I demonstrated it was worse state wide.
But here is some more:
"Prostitution of adults is legal in 11 rural counties in Nevada.
By creating false identification, outside pimps can use these brothels to traffic children.
[7][8][9] Detective Greg Harvey, from
Eugene, Oregon, said such cases were in reality very common; he said, "It's happening right now, it's amazing how many girls are shipped from here to different brothels in northern and southern Nevada. Many are underage." Another detective, Sgt. Pete Kerns, supported Harvey's claims:
"Never buy the line that nobody under 18 works in (Nevada brothels)," he said. "It's happening."

"In her 2007 report,
Prostitution and trafficking in Nevada: making the connections,
Melissa Farley presents the results of numerous interviews with brothel owners and prostitutes, she says that most brothel prostitutes are controlled by outside
pimps and that they suffer widespread abuse by brothel owners and customers.
[10] Bob Herbertsupports the claim, stating:
"Despite the fiction that they are "independent contractors," most so-called legal prostitutes have pimps — the state-sanctioned pimps who run the brothels and, in many cases, a second pimp who controls all other aspects of their lives (and takes the bulk of their legal earnings)."[8]
"Alexa Albert says that the trafficking is done in cooperation with brothel owners, so the prostitutes will be easier to control.
[7] Assemblyman
Bob L. Beers said that "A brothel owner is somebody who, when it gets down to the very essence, is nothing more than a slave-owner."
[11] Former
Nye County Commissioner Candice Trummell, director of the Nevada Coalition Against Sex Trafficking, said "It is way past time for Nevada to be the last state in the United States of America to finally stand against all forms of
slavery."
[12]
"In 2009, an article in the
Guardian stated that some brothels "impose some extraordinary restrictions on commercial sex workers" in order to "separate sex workers from the local community": some places forbid prostitutes to leave the brothels for extended periods of time, while other jurisdictions require the prostitutes to leave the county when they are not working; some places do not allow the children of the women who work in the brothels to live in the same area; some brothel workers are not permitted to leave the brothel after 5pm; in some counties registered sex workers are not allowed to have cars at all.
[13] Another former prostitute who worked in four Nevada brothels attacked the system, saying,
"Under this system, prostitutes give up too much autonomy, control and choice over their work and lives" and "While the brothel owners love this profitable solution, it can be exploitative and is unnecessary". She described how the women were subject to various exaggerated restrictions, including making it very difficult for them to refuse clients and having to deal with doctors who had a "patronizing or sexist attitude" (the brothels discouraged and in many cases forbade prostitutes to see doctors of their own choosing).
