“Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada!” That iconic sign at the entrance to the world-famous Las Vegas Strip sums it all up. We live in a city that is home to some of the most amazing mega resorts and casinos in the world. It’s no wonder that four of them made the top 10 in a recent survey ranking the most popular casinos in America.
Latest Study By Slots Of Vegas Measures Popularity Of America’s Casinos
The latest study by Slots Of Vegas measures the popularity of over 300 casinos from across the United States. According to their information from Forbes, the casino industry in the U.S is worth over $53 billion dollars!
That pretty much proves that Americans love going to casinos, even if they choose not to gamble. Casinos have become hubs for restaurants, entertainment, and spas in many cities around our nation.
Basically, the study takes into account reviews on TripAdvisor.com. The casinos with the most “excellent” or “very good” reviews receive the highest scores.
Most Popular Casinos: Four Las Vegas Resorts In Top 10
With this in mind, it is great to see that Las Vegas resorts hold the top two positions on the most popular casinos in America list from Slots Of Vegas. Actually, it’s a three-way tie for second place. However, I bet if they had used a “best out of 100” scoring system instead of “best out of 10,” there wouldn’t be any ties.
Furthermore, it is also impressive to note that three of the top 5 spots are held by Sin City destinations.
Comparatively, the east coast casino hub of Atlantic City, New Jersey claims two “most popular” spots in the top 10. Other locations which are home to some of the most popular casinos in America include the states of Washington, California, Connecticut, and Alabama.
Without further ado, let’s check out the top 10 casinos on the list!
