The number of casinos in New York has been increasing in recent years, as the state has sought to boost tourism and economic development. In 2013, the state legislature passed a law that allowed for the construction of four new casinos in the state. The first of these casinos, the Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady, opened in 2017. The other three casinos are scheduled to open in 2023.

The addition of these new casinos has been met with some controversy, with critics arguing that they will harm the local economy and lead to increased gambling addiction. However, supporters of the casinos argue that they will create jobs and generate tax revenue for the state.

Only adults 21 and over are permitted to gamble at casinos in New York.
