==History==
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.<ref name=kanigher/> It originally only consisted of the northern fraction of its modern-day boundary.<ref name="Census 1970">[https://archive.org/details/printedreportsfr00unit <!-- quote="Vegas Creek (U)". --> 1970 U.S. census: Nevada], Retrieved 2020-04-06 (Go to page 30-16 for map).</ref> By the time of the [[1970 United States census|1970 Census]], the [[census-designated place]] of [[Vegas Creek, Nevada|Vegas Creek]] was formed to the south of Sunrise Manor.<ref name="Census 1970"/> It was dissolved in 1980, and added to Sunrise Manor the same year, roughly making Sunrise Manor's boundaries similar to its modern-day borders.<ref>[http://www2.census.gov/prod2/decennial/documents/1980a_nvABCD-01.pdf Population and housing unit counts for Nevada in 1980]. [[United States Census Bureau]]. 1983. Retrieved 2020-04-06.</ref>

In 2018, some of the residents of Sunrise Manor proposed incorporation as its own city. This proposed city would include Sunrise Manor and neighboring [[Whitney, Nevada|Whitney]].<ref name=totten>{{cite web |url=https://knpr.org/knpr/2018-05/new-city-proposed-east-las-vegas |title=New City Proposed In East Las Vegas |last=Totten |first=Kristy |date=8 May 2018 |website=knpr.org |access-date=6 April 2020}}</ref> Residents who were for incorporation argued that Sunrise Manor does not get enough recognition being part of [[Clark County, Nevada|Clark County]] and that a city would need to address crime, drugs, and homelessness, while residents who were against incorporation argued that incorporation will be costly and inefficient, comparing it to [[North Las Vegas]].<ref name=totten/><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.ktnv.com/news/some-eastsiders-forming-plan-to-break-away-from-clark-county |title=New city would be incorporated as Sunrise Manor |last=Schuman |first=David |date=17 January 2018 |website=ktnv.com |access-date=6 April 2020}}</ref>
