摘要：
The economic impact of travel and tourism was determined for a nine-county region during 1994. Travel and tourism was described on the basis of 28 activities. Total annual attendance from ail activities was 22.3 million visitor days, with nonresident visitors accounting for 48% of the total. Total regional expenditures amounted to $662 million, with 68% coming from nonresidents. An input-output model of the region established the total sales impact from travel and tourism at $914 million. Total impact also amounted to $539 million in value added with $310 million directed to wages and salaries in support of more than 23,000 jobs.
