June saw a nearly 10% drop in casino revenue in the Baton Rouge region following a strong May—yet revenues remain higher than June 2024. Here’s what that means for our local economy.
💵 June vs. May: June dropped to $25M from $28M in May—a 9.4% month‑over‑month decline
Despite the dip, total casino revenue is up about 6% from June 2024’s $24 M .
May Revenue: $17.6 million
June Revenue: $15.2 million
Month-over-Month Change: -13.5%
Year-over-Year Change: -2.1%

A June dip might point to seasonal factors or temporary shifts in visitor behavior. But strong YoY gains mean confidence—and dollars—are still coming into Baton Rouge. More casino revenue can fuel hospitality, entertainment, and housing markets nearby.
June’s slip is a pause, not a decline. Long‑term gains still in play—meaning our local investment and job markets stay lively. As those dollars flow into tourism and rentals, Baton Rouge homes and neighborhoods benefit.
