AGA survey reveals that Americans are embracing?the gaming industry
A new conducted by the American Gaming Association (AGA) reveals that a record number of Americans are embracing the gaming industry, both as a form of entertainment and as a significant contributor to the U.S. economy. The survey, which sampled 2,000 registered voters aged 21 and over, proves the increasing acceptance and participation in gaming activities, particularly in 바카라 gambling and sports betting.
Joe Maloney, AGA Senior Vice President of Strategic Communications, explained: These latest survey results highlight a consistent trend over the years: as gaming expands to new audiences, Americans increasingly see the benefits of a legal, regulated gaming marketplace that contributes to communities, prioritises responsibility, and provides unmatched entertainment.
Economic benefits of the industry recognised
Americans are acknowledging the broader economic benefits of the gaming industry. A significant majority, 76 percent, recognise the positive impact of gaming on the overall U.S. economy. Furthermore, more than three-quarters of respondents credit the industry with bolstering local economies, creating jobs, and boosting tourism. 85 percent believe that 바카라s bring entertainment and dining options to regions that might not otherwise attract them, and 84 percent agree that 바카라s increase tourism and draw conventions and meetings to their locations.
Public trust in responsible gaming efforts
According to the survey, an increasing number of Americans, 65 percent, now believe that the gaming industry is committed to promoting responsible gaming and addressing problem gambling, a sharp rise from 40 percent in 2018. Among those who directly engage with the industry, such as physical 바카라 players and sports bettors, this confidence is even higher, with 81 percent and 88 percent respectively affirming the industry’s dedication to responsible gaming.
Additionally, awareness of responsible gaming resources and messaging has grown substantially. Two-thirds of Americans reported encountering responsible gaming messaging in the past year, up from 56 percent in 2022. Among 바카라 players and sports bettors, 92 percent and 96 percent respectively are now familiar with at least one responsible gaming resource.
Casinos entertainment value praised
According to the survey, 90 percent of 바카라 visitors perceive 바카라s as providing innovative entertainment, and 89 percent believe that the value for money offered by 바카라s is superior to other entertainment options.
Growing number of players
According to the AGAs research, 55 percent of American adults engaged in some form of gambling in the past year. Casino visitation reached an all-time high, with 49 percent of the adult population, or 122 million Americans, visiting a 바카라 for gambling or other entertainment purposes in the past 12 months. This represents the highest level of 바카라 engagement on record.
Younger players
According to the survey, the last years have seen a shift in the demographic profile of 바카라-goers. The average age of 바카라 visitors has steadily decreased over the past five years, dropping from 49.6 years in 2019 to 41.9 years in 2024.
