Clark County residents have more options of where to play video poker and grab a bite as some gaming operators see opportunities for growth in taverns and other restricted licensed spots.
Some Southern Nevada gaming operators are expanding their tavern verticals, falling in line with the rising number of restricted license gaming locations in Clark County. The county has added 92 new locations since 2019, a 6.5 percent increase, reaching 1,512 licenses, according to state data. It’s also up roughly 3 percent from its previous peak in 2007.
Some experts say the growth could be in line with expectations – as the community grows, so too does its convenience stores and food and drinking places, complete with gaming machines.
