(FRENT, C. (2016)) While tourism can positively impact economically speaking, there can also be a negative economic impact. Prices will inevitably inflate. The cost of food will rise which unfortunately negatively affects the people who live in that community. The resources that the hotel requires will be taking away from other things that could have used those resources. For example, governmental support for the infrastructure could take away resources from more important areas such as health and education. (UNEP, 2016b, FRENT, C. (2016)) The California Area School District should not suffer over a new hotel that is not needed in the first place. An important factor to think about is that people do not want to depend on tourism to keep their community economically stable. (FRENT, C. (2016)) The main reason for this being, the tourism industry is not fully reliable. In order to have a tourism industry, tourists are needed to fill hotel rooms. Many factors affect this such as the income of the traveler. When pay cuts, lay offs, and unemployment affect people, they simply will not have the extra cash to take a vacation and put their money into tourism. It is said that relying on agriculture is the safer bet because people will always have the need to eat. (FRENT, C. (2016)) The median household income in 1999 in

Thus, it provides an understanding of how tourism helps to develop the Britain in terms of environmental impacts, socio-cultural impacts, and economic impacts.

An economic impact study was conducted on the festival to show that the city was receiving a great come back for its investment. On the other hand, a survey was proposed to gather information from the local population to determine whether the festival was a quality community event and whether it was generating spending by attracting non-local and out-of-state visitors. The research team piloted an economic impact analysis with importance on the total value added to the community through expanded spending and the city’s tax collections through the event. The team also measured the level of satisfaction that the event participants had to determine the percentage of repeat visitors. However, the study rediscovered that 34,000 visitors spent an estimated $7.32 million with local vendors on many goods and services during the festival. The positive economic impact, favorable reviews by attendees, number of return visitors, and variety of attractions that festival goers selected indicated that this even is both a successful economic stimulus and an effective community development

Colorado is such a beautiful state. It brings in a lot of outsiders but not only for its beauty, but for its history as well. Travelers and tourists have been visiting Colorado since before the 19th century.

Tourism could also lead to the overloading of porters which would lead to health problems. A loss of traditional values and culture is a possible outcome as well, through imitation of visitor behavior or

Another aspect of impact of tourism on a country’s economy is that it facilitates the expansion of the market of goods and services. Foreigners come to a country willing to spend money on different goods and services, thus increasing the amounts of sales. This is a great chance for producers and service providers to receive larger profits. This concerns not only hoteliers, tour operators, and souvenir shops owners. Public transportation, retail stores of different kind, restaurants, and cafes benefit from international tourism. Obviously, if these industries are in demand, businesses will be expanding. On the one hand, it means that more money is paid to the budget. On the other hand, profits generated by the owners are spent inside the country, affecting almost all the fields of the

Tourism is a rapidly growing industry and has far-reaching economic and environmental impact across the destinations; hence, if tourism is an important source of local employment and a significant

Tourism has greatly increased over the years and has brought people of different cultures closer. There are many places to go explore and learn about how other live in different countries. Tourism has allowed travelers to the world around them, however the impacts from tourism on the host country are not known by many of the travelers. Some of these impacts from tourism can be negatively affecting the host country and those travelers who do not educate themselves on where they are going are most likely contributing to the negative impact.
