Carson City, Carson Valley area and Lake Tahoe south shore see June gaming revenue increase
The Carson Valley region, which includes Carson City, and the Stateline casino corridor at South Shore Lake Tahoe were the only two regions in Nevada that saw an increase rather than a decrease in gaming revenue for the month of June, the state's gaming control board reported today.
The casinos in the Carson City and Carson Valley area climbed by 5.1 percent over the fiscal year for June, followed by the Tahoe casinos, which jumped to 13.5 percent.
Statewide, Nevada gaming revenues declined more than 6 percent in June, marking the fourth straight month of declining revenues and the largest single monthly drop this year. The state’s casinos raked in $763.81 million in June, about 6.6 percent less than in June 2009, figures released by the board show.
