“Atlantic City’s gaming industry demonstrated resilience and momentum in 2025 Record-setting growth in internet gaming generated vital tax revenue for programs supporting seniors and people with disabilities, while the return of major events brought renewed energy to the city’s economy. Even as traditional gaming remained flat and operators navigated rising costs, casinos continued to invest in new amenities and experiences—positioning Atlantic City for long-term growth and continued revitalization ahead of expanded competition in the region.”
