About Sparks
Sparks adjoins Reno to the east and functions largely as a locals market, with a heavier slot weighting and steadier month-to-month revenue than Reno itself. Separate reporting begins in 2018.
Other Nevada markets in 2006
All figures are gaming win at nonrestricted locations, taken from the Nevada Gaming Control Board's monthly Gaming Revenue Information reports. Win is what casinos kept after paying winning wagers, before taxes and operating costs. Restricted locations, the taverns and stores running fifteen machines or fewer, are reported separately and excluded here.
