While the national casino economy is doing well, there are pockets of sluggishness such as Atlantic City, where in-person casino revenue has not yet rebounded to pre-pandemic levels.
Inflation may be soaring, supply chains remain snarled and the coronavirus just won't go away, but America's casinos are humming right along, recording the best month in their history in March.
The casinos collectively also had their best first quarter ever, falling just short of the $14.35 billion they won from gamblers in the fourth quarter of last year, which was the highest three-month period in history.The numbers do not include tribal casinos, which report their income separately and are expected to report similarly positive results.
"Consumers continue to seek out gaming’s entertainment options in record numbers," said Bill Miller, the association's president and CEO. He said the strong performance to start 2022 came "despite continued headwinds from supply chain constraints, labor shortages and the impact of soaring inflation."
As previously reported, nationwide casino revenue set an all-time high in 2021 at $53.03 billion, up 21% from the previous best year, 2019, before the coronavirus pandemic hit.
