OVERVIEW
The United States is of course a hugely diverse market which is changing rapidly. There are 28 states with pari- mutuel facilities, there are 14 states with 49 Racinos, 17 states with a total of 464 commercial or riverboat casinos, there five states operating 413 card rooms, there are 28 states with around 466 tribal casinos and there are a total 853,197 slot machines in 39 states in the casinos, tribal casinos and non casino locations with 446,458 in casinos, 328,284 in tribal casinos and 78,455 in non casino locations. Nevada has the most slots with 178,000 followed by California with 68,341 and Oklahoma with 64,786. Meanwhile gross gambling revenue for the commercial casino industry was up to $37.34bn last year and the sector employs 332,075 people and pays out $13.2bn in wages and contributed $8.6bn in gaming taxes.
Top US casino markets are Las Vegas Strip with $6.2bn in revenues followed by Atlantic City with $3bn, Chicagoland with $2.2bn and Detroit with $1.4bn. The casinos saw a total of 76.1 million visitors last year. A slow economic recovery means commercial gambling revenues are still down on previous years and it is a concern that there is little room to grow in the commercial gaming sector. It is thought there are two major states where gaming could develop including Georgia and Texas. Online gaming is permitted in Nevada and Delaware and New Jersey is set to follow whilst New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and California are planning for regulation. If 17 states permit online gaming the market could be worth $7.4bn by 2017.
