Gambling may look like harmless entertainment, but it can easily become an addiction equal to any alcohol or drug addiction. Some relevant statistics include:

  • Problem gambling doubles within 10 miles of a gambling facility, according to a study published in 2004, which included a nationwide survey of 2,631 adults.
  • Survey results have shown that 23 percent of Allegheny County residents have a friend or family member who gambled too much in the past year, and that 25 percent of Pennsylvania high schoolers gamble.
