Las Vegas is a metro area with a population of over 2 million and a very small percentage of those are small stakes poker grinders.
If you are a landlord, you don't want to have short term tenants. They create additional costs/overhead and risk. So the only reason to rent out for less than the standard 12 month lease is a significantly higher monthly rent. Also, if you want to have a furnished apartment, you obviously have to pay for that too.
I have no Vegas specific information, but I know that in other major cities short term leases for furnished apartments are often in the neighborhood of 50% extra. They usually also have utilities and often internet/TV included and you pay a premium for that, too. So if you see an apartment that would rent for $700/month plus ~$200 for utilities/internet on a one year lease, you might have to pay $1300/month all inclusive for a 3 month lease.
