The community was originally named Robinsonville, but the name was changed in 2003. The community is situated mostly between the Mississippi River and U.S. Highway 61.
Tunica Resorts is, as the name implies, home to 9 casino resorts. The use of the name "Tunica" by the resorts, despite the fact that since 1995 they were all located in Robinsonville and not Tunica proper, led to the name change to reduce confusion by tourists. Lacking the structure of an organized city or town, Tunica Resorts consists mainly of casinos and cotton fields, with few permanent residents living in the community. Despite this, Tunica Resorts is the third largest casino-gambling destination in the United States, as measured by gaming revenue, behind Las Vegas, Nevada and Atlantic City, New Jersey. Its casinos attract gamblers mainly from nearby Memphis, Tennessee, but also draw visitors from northern Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, Alabama, Missouri and Kentucky. (...)
