The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority noted an 11.3% decrease in visitor volume in June 2025. Katherine, a resident of College Station, Texas, told Fox she was visiting the city to celebrate her daughter's 16th birthday. Last year, a user posted on the Las Vegas Reddit thread asking, "How can tourists afford to gamble when food & drink at even low-end casinos is absurd?" Las Vegas has seen a decline in convention attendance in addition to overall visitors. One man in town on a 21st birthday trip told Fox he heard rumors of an ATM charging a $95 fee.
