Pennsylvania's Gambling Options
Pennsylvania's gambling scene is extensive and readily accessible. The state boasts 17 commercial casinos offering a vast array of table games, slots, and electronic gambling options. The Pennsylvania Lottery has various games, and charitable bingo halls operate across the commonwealth. Most notably, online sports betting and casinos are now legal in Pennsylvania. This unavoidable presence of betting opportunities today raises concerns about the societal impacts, in particular gambling addiction.

Recent reporting revealed that calls to a problem gambling hotline in PA tripled from 2021-2024, according to the Council on Compulsive Gambling of Pennsylvania.
