Nevada Gaming Revenue Slides In Feb. 2017

Nevada gaming revenue slid last month by almost 4.5 percent as compared to a year ago.

The Nevada Gaming Control Board data show every region of the state saw declines in gaming year over year, with downtown Las Vegas being the exception.

Strip revenue was down nearly 5 percent, and Boulder Strip revenue was down more than 9 percent.

Overall for the fiscal year, though, gaming revenue is up just over 2.7 percent.
