Nevada casino gaming profits are finishing 2025 strong with the second straight monthly percentage increase in November and it did so without a big boost from the Strip, the Nevada Gaming Control Board reported Wednesday.
The state’s 441 licensed casinos won $1.34 billion from players, up 2.4 percent from 2024, which was the fourth-best month this year and the second-best November ever.
While the Strip’s November profit of $784.3 million represents 58.2 percent of the state’s total profit, November profit was down 0.6 percent from a year ago.
But there were double-digit percentage increases in other submarkets within Clark County with the Boulder Strip up 20 percent to $79.5 million, Laughlin up 11.6 percent to $38 million, Mesquite up 10.7 percent to $18.2 million and downtown Las Vegas up 10.3 percent to $87.2 million for the month.
The Boulder Strip’s performance was the best among 19 submarkets tracked by the Control Board, beating an 18.5 percent increase in outlying Washoe County.
Of the 19 submarkets, only five had November 2024 performance with South Lake Tahoe showing a 4.6 percent decrease to $13.8 million.
The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority is expected to announce visitor statistics later Wednesday.
