Lawton suggested the monthly gaming revenue increases may moderate during 2023. During the streak, the state’s monthly gaming revenue total has surpassed Nevada's previous statewide record of $1.16 billion set in October 2007 in 15 different months, including July 2021’s current single-month record of $1.36 billion. Nevada has experienced 22 straight months of $1 billion or more in gaming revenue. “The state’s combined markets outside of the Strip only increased by 0.2 percent, or $914,000 compared to December 2021.” “The Strip accounted for the majority of the statewide increase in December,” said control board senior economic analyst Michael Lawton.
