According to the St Louis Post Dispatch, total revenue from the six casinos in the St Louis MO/IL market reached $1.09 billion in 2010. It was a respectable 3.6% increase over 2009's total-- a notable feat in a weak year for casinos nationally. By comparison, the Las Vegas Strip enjoyed only about a 1% growth.
The St Louis casino market is the sixth-largest in the nation, behind the Strip, Atlantic City, Chicagoland, Connecticut, and Detroit. That's right, the St Louis casino market is bigger than Tunica or Reno.
Not saying if this is all good news or bad for St Louis. Just saying that a billion dollars is disappearing from our collective pockets in a year's time. Let's hope our area is benefitting from this somehow.
