Indian Gaming Revenue Continues to Increase as Percentage of Total Gaming

Earlier this year, Dr. Alan Meister and Casino City Press released the 2011 Gaming Industry Report.

Of special note this year:

“Despite the small decline in Indian gaming, it continued to close the gap on commercial casinos, which suffered a much larger decline. In 2009, Indian gaming revenue was 96 percent of that of the commercial casino segment. This compares to 89 percent in 2008.”

As Indian gaming is now larger than Nevada commercial gaming and coming close to surpassing all commercial gaming in the United States it is Interesting to note that, California and Oklahoma account for 38% of total Indian gaming revenue in 2010.
