How about a city that is as close to the ham center of population oin the country as possible, wherever that would be?

BTW, the quote is from from Ron Cramer, the General Manager of Hamvention, as quoted in this article: http://www.whio.com/news/business/hamvention-to-find-new-home-after-hara-arena-annou/nr7C2/

To me, Vegas has several advantages:

1.  Accessible via cheap, non-stop flights from almost anywhere.
2.  Better, more predictable weather.  No rain.
3.  Infinite hotel space.
4.  Plenty of alternate activities for both hams and spouses.

With no disrespect to those who live in the Dayton area, it is a depressing, run-down, small city. There are plenty of better options, including Vegas.
