Travel is also a leading industry and source of jobs within regions and local communities, and is increasing in relative economic importance. Expenditures for travel and tourism impact transportation, lodging, eating establishments, retail, and service businesses. These expenditures support jobs, personal income, and government tax revenues. - Travel industry employment for 1989 increased by nearly 3 million jobs from 1988. This employment includes air transportation, intercity highway travel, eating and drinking establishments, hotels and motels, and amusement and recreation services. The travel industry has continually out-performed the overall economy in creating new jobs. (U.S. Travel Data Center, 1989, 1990).

Tourism Spending, Visitation, and Jobs The Wealth of Humboldt and the Klamath and Siskiyou Region Jessica Thurm Sources: Oregon Economic and Community Development Department http://www.econ.state.or.us Oregon Tourism Commission http://www.travel> oregon.com/general. California Tourism Research http://www.ca.gov/research/county/html How are we doing? Over the years tourism has seen a steady increase in both Oregon and California. This is consistent with each states' shift away from an economy focused on natural resource extraction to a more service oriented economy. California has seen employment growth in the travel industry at almost twice the rate of Oregon, however quantity does not equal quality. In Oregon tourism employment has grown at a slower rate than payroll and travel spending, this reflects a rise in average industry wage. Why is this important? An increase in tourism can be used as both a means of preserving our natural resource base for current and future generations, and as a way to strengthen and diversify local and state economies. Tourism development can help protect scarce scenic, cultural, and historic resources (aspects of cultural and natural capital) previously considered a financial liability. Excessive tourism, on the other hand, can damage cultural and natural capital stocks from overuse.
