An April 2023 survey analyzed the amount wagered by young adults who participated in sports betting activities in the United States. Overall, roughly 30 percent of respondents reported placing wagers of between 10 and 20 U.S. dollars. On the other hand, only around three percent of the sample mentioned to pace bets of less than one U.S. dollars as of the survey period.
