Abstract This report presents a high-level analysis of the effects of location on personal travel and trends associated with place of residence and the travel behavior of younger populations (ages 20-34). Seven distinct neighborhood typologies were created using data from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Smart Location Database and the Decennial U.S. Census. Neighborhoods were classified in terms of the built environment and surrounding transportation system, using variables that provided information about jobs, housing and employment densities, intersection densities, transit supply, and types of developments. In addition, four distinct traveler types were developed using data from the National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) based on selected variables, including: miles of travel, daily trips, car ownership, mode use, and licensure. Neighborhood types and traveler types were then linked to explore travel characteristics associated with place of residence. Findings suggest that location plays a role in personal travel decisions. Where people live, work, recreate, and how they travel are intimately related to the built environment. Youth are more likely to live in urban areas, compared to previous generations. Younger populations (ages 20-34) are more likely than other age groups to live in the central city; however, this often changes as they age and have children. Most young adults still live and move into suburban areas. Nationwide, just over half of all youth (53 percent) live in suburban neighborhoods. Despite the thought that younger populations are becoming more urban, current trends show that a significant number of youth are more commonly taking up residence in suburban neighborhoods, particularly in new developments. A large percentage of youth are carless and have shown a decline in trip making, most likely a result of their economic condition. 17. Key Words 18.

  • Travel Leaders Echo Experts: Make Fact-Based Decisions About Traveling U.S
    Travel Leaders Echo Experts: Make Fact-Based Decisions About Traveling U.S. Officials: "It Is Safe for Healthy Americans to Travel" WASHINGTON (March 10, 2020)—A coalition of 150 travel-related organizations issued the following statement on the latest developments around coronavirus (signatories below): "For the travel and hospitality industry, the safety of the traveling public, our guests and our employees is of the utmost importance. We are in daily contact with public health authorities and are acting on the most up-to-date information on the evolving coronavirus situation. "Health and government officials have continually assured the public that healthy Americans can 'confidently travel in this country.' While it's critically important to remain vigilant and take useful precautions in times like these, it's equally important to make calm, rational, and fact- based decisions. "Though the headlines may be worrisome, experts continue to say the overall coronavirus risk in the U.S. remains low. At-risk groups are older individuals and those with underlying health conditions, who should take extra precautions. "The latest expert guidance indicates that for the overwhelming majority, it's OK to live, work, play and travel in the U.S. By seeking and heeding the latest expert guidance—which includes vigorous use of good health practices, similar to the preventive steps recommended for the seasonal flu—America's communities will stay strong and continue to thrive. The decision to cancel travel and events has a trickle-down effect that threatens to harm the U.S. economy, from locally owned hotels, restaurants, travel advisors and tour operators to the service and frontline employees who make up the backbone of the travel industry and the American economy.

M. A. Student in Tourism Development Planning, Faculty of Tourism, University of Science and Culture, Tehran, Iran. 2. Assistant Professor, Faculty of Tourism, University of Science and Culture, Tehran, Iran. Received: 10/05/2021 Accepted: 01/07/2021 Available online: 23/07/2021 Abstract| Backpacking tourism is a type of adventure tourism that has increased significantly in recent years. Backpackers are tourists who travel with only one backpack and the lowest possible budget. Their target destinations are lesser-known areas and nature. Backpackers travel to discover new destinations and communicate with locals to better understand them. They play an effective role in identifying and introducing lesser-known tourist destinations. Although choosing a backpacking travel style by young people in Iran is increasing, less research still exists in this field and its effects on the tourism industry of Iran and the local community has not been investigated. This study aims to recognize the attitudes of rural residents towards the phenomenon of backpacking and identify its socio-cultural effects on rural host communities. For this purpose, Darak village located in Chabahar city of Sistan and Baluchistan province was selected as a case study.

  • Youth Tourists' Profile and Their Travel Choices As
    European Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research Vol.1, No. 3, pp. 22-35,December 2013 Published by European Centre for Resarch Training and Development UK(www.ea-journals.org) YOUTH TOURISTS’ PROFILE AND THEIR TRAVEL CHOICES AS INFLUENCED BY SOCIAL MEDIA NETWORKS Panagiota Dionysopoulou Hellenic Open University, Parodos Aristotelous 18, Patra, 26 335, Greece John Mylonakis 10 Nikiforou str. Glyfada, Athens, Greece ABSTRACT: The development of Social Media has conveyed important changes in the behavioural models of tourists, as well as, in the way users search, assess, produce, purchase and consume information, products and services. The scope of this paper is to study the effects of Social Media on youth tourism, the profile of young tourists’ actively participating in Social Networks, as well as, the effects of information absorbed through them on their travel decisions. The research was based on a sample of 254 young people between 16-29 years old with the use of a questionnaire of 25 close and open questions. It is designed to examine the demographic and specific traits of young people and the way of planning their trip through information and stimuli they receive from Social Media. Research found that although young people spend much time for their activities in Social Media, the rates of influence in their tourist behaviour is not as high as those of relative researches in abroad. This finding is not necessarily negative, since the presence of portal and travel magazines, travel agency are being felt more and more in Social Media. It has, also, been found that users are more positive to add to their contacts travel portals and magazines than commercial enterprises, because their environment is more friendly and familiar to the user.

Profiles, Attitudes, and Implications for Destination Strategies Federica Buffa Department of Economics and Management, University of Trento, Via Inama 5, Trento 38122, Italy; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0461-282146; Fax: +39-0461-282241 Academic Editors: Gianna Moscardo and Marc A. Rosen Received: 31 August 2015 / Accepted: 13 October 2015 / Published: 20 October 2015 Abstract: Global trends highlight the growing tourist interest in authentic and sustainable holiday experiences. Designing strategies that enable destinations to catch this tourist segment is, therefore, becoming more and more important for competitiveness. A long-term outlook calls into question the “next generation” of actual and potential tourists, i.e., young people: understanding their attitude towards sustainability is paramount to drive tourism development in a direction which is coherent to the forthcoming demand. Drawing from an ad hoc survey of 1156 members of the largest Italian association of student and youth tourism, this contribution (a) discusses youth attitudes towards sustainability, their travel motivations and behavior (b) identifies different profiles of young tourists with reference to sustainability. By using characteristics and dimensions linked with “harder ecotourists” we identify hard path young tourists (HPYT) and soft path young tourists (SPYT). The findings confirm young people’s interest in certain dimensions of sustainability and the influence this interest has on their decision-making processes, motivations, and behaviors. HPYT and SPYT are profiles which should be considered in destination strategies: the strong sensitivity of HPYT to sustainability suggests the possibility of creating offers that optimize the unique features of a territory.

With regional income effects of approximately 1 million USD (SKBR) and approximately 1.9 million USD (SMNP), both the SKBR and the SMNP play important roles for the regional economies in underdeveloped rural regions. Visitor structures are heterogeneous: with regard to planning and marketing of nature-based tourism, protected area managers and political decision-takers are advised put a stronger focus on ecologically and economically attractive visitor groups.
