It's interesting that Nevada is not on the list of highest % of Adults with Gambling Disorder. In fact none of the top 5 states with most casinos are on that list.

South Dakota is on the highest casinos list and also on the lowest % of gambling disorders.

Does that imply that the easier access is the less likely people are to abuse it?
Very interesting.

Nope.

I think you'll find gambing problems are most prevalent in lower socioeconomic areas.

Look at where all the betting shops are in the UK.

Do those states in the US fall into those categories?
I would have thought hawaii wouldn't since it has a high tourism rate and I'd assume the people there live pretty well.

Yes. There's a lot of people in America that are barely living above the poverty line. Trump is gaining a lot of support in part because of the struggling economy.

The oddest thing about this is that I keep seeing ads saying Hawaii is begging people to come to work there.

So cost of living is high, tourism is booming. So why are they getting paid such ****** wages?
