Our mission
The goal of StatesCasinos.com is to be the most complete and honest comparison guide to America's casinos and gambling halls. The site is designed around the visitor: fewer clicks, clearer data, and no commercial pressure on what we publish.

Although StatesCasinos.com is primarily dedicated to listing casinos with attached or affiliated hotels, we also list non-resort casinos, card rooms, and racinos at the request of our visitors. The directory has been maintained on the internet since 1998 and continues to expand as new properties open and others close.
If you ever have trouble navigating the site or spot something that looks wrong, please tell us — accuracy is the whole point. We treat every correction as part of our quarterly verification cycle.
“Fewer clicks. Clearer data. Casinos you can actually trust.”
