That includes North Las Vegas, with a 5% boost in winnings compared to 2025 . Channel 13 asked Mayor Pamela Goynes-Brown what could be behind the boost in revenue.
"I think we offer a plethora of activities and fun events here at the local casinos here that are in North Las Vegas," said Mayor Goynes-Brown.
She added, "you’re not in the hustle and bustle of the strip. It’s kind of quiet over here."
The Mayor added that this is another positive piece of news during a time when city leaders are eyeing expansion and growth throughout the area.
"This right here, is built for the locals in Las Vegas," a North Las Vegas resident shared with Channel 13, pointing towards Jerry's Nugget Casino.
