Nevada casinos fell $4 million short of tying the state’s single-month gaming revenue record during March. Las Vegas Strip casinos recorded their highest revenue month of all time. Last year, Nevada casinos collected a record $13.4 billion in gaming revenues. The gaming industry in Clark County recorded a single month record of almost $1.2 billion. The state's gaming activity and consumer behavior remains consistent across the majority of markets. In March, slot machines produced a 16.8 percent increase in revenue.

Washoe County casinos took in $84.7 million in revenue during March. Reno casinos collected almost $59.8 million. South Lake Tahoe casinos reversed a two-month gaming revenue slide and took $25.4 million during the month.

Nevada sportsbooks missed the $1 billion mark in wagers for the second straight month. They took in $863 million in March.
