Caesar’s casino in Danville has been open for more than a month now, drawing thousands to the temporary space in the southside. In just the first two weeks. City officials say it far exceeded their revenue expectations.
However, the temporary space is only a fraction of what’s coming next year, when the permanent location opens up. Bringing hundreds of jobs to the southside and a strain on the already tapped housing market.
City Manager, Ken Larking, says he has been hearing of an increase in cost of living from some residents, but adds that it could be due to the condition of the economy nationwide.
