In January 2021, a survey was conducted to determine the frequency with which adults in the United States placed bets on sports. Predictably, the frequency of betting was influenced by whether or not the gambler was in a legal betting state. Approximately 79 percent of adults inside legal betting states stated that they never placed bets on sports, while 82 percent of adults outside legal betting stated that they never placed bets on sports.
