Native American casinos offer a wide array of gaming opportunities that help patrons satisfy their gambling itch. But casinos, whether they be in Las Vegas or on the myriad Native American reservations around the country, are big business. Native American casinos in the U.S. totaled more than 524 as of 2019 and are the fastest growing segment of the gaming industry. While Native American gaming resorts may not be as expansive and opulent as their Vegas counterparts, the casinos themselves can be massive and rake in huge dollars. According to Gaming Business, gross gambling revenue from Native American casinos increased 2.5% year-on-year in the 2019 financial year to a record $34.6 billion. The total was the highest single-year figure in the 32 years since the federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act was enacted.
