Florida Tourism

Florida’s tourism industry

"It delivered a record $133.6 billion in economic impact in 2024, according to a new Visit Florida analysis released Tuesday, marking one of the strongest years on record for visitor spending and tax revenue.

The report shows that tourism-related taxes generated enough revenue to offset what Florida households would otherwise pay by an estimated $1,730 annually, with total savings approaching $2,000 when indirect effects are included.

Out-of-state visitors spent $134.9 billion last year, a 3 percent increase over 2023, as Florida drew an all-time high of 143 million travelers and supported 1.8 million jobs statewide.

Maybe one of these days The Gulfstream Hotel will open and Lake Worth Beach will be part of the revenue from tourism." [Stet News]

We are blessed to not have to pay state taxes here, we just have to put up with ill behaved Canadians a lot. They are the worst!

Don't see too many these days...their dollar is only .71 cents to our $1.00. Our last Canadian sold his condo in our building.

Can’t blame them. The anti-foreigner hate is off the charts in America these days.

illegals in this country is the concern. They are all criminals and some are doing horrendous crimes against our citizens. Biden and Kamala did this. Now we have an Afghan problem thanks to Biden and one yelling Allah Akbar as he shoots two National Guards.

70% of those being deported have no criminal convictions.

But don't let the facts interfere with your narrative.
