Overview: This article suggests that evidence is converging to show that casino gambling causes significant increases in crime. Taken altogether, casinos impose crime and other costs - paid for by society, including those who do not gamble- that exceed their benefits and represent substantial burdens on nearby populations. Because casino gambling fails a cost-benefit test, policymakers should consider options that include imposing taxes equal to the costs casinos impose, restricting casino expansion, or banning casino gambling altogether.
