DETAILS OF THE FINDINGS Attendee Gender – Six of ten head of game party 2012 Cactus League attendee respondents are men. This is the case among both local (Phoenix metro residents) and out-of-area (outside the Phoenix metro) attendees. In line with past studies, there continues to be a male skew regardless of team – especially among Reds (66%), Dodgers (66%) and Rockies (68%) attendees. Only among Rangers attendees is there a slight female lean (52%).

As we found in 2007, the median age of out-of-area attendees (52.5 years) is “older” than Phoenix metro area residents (45.3 years). Median age distribution by team ranges from 44.6 years (Diamondbacks attendees) to 54.8 years (Cubs attendees).

This represents a progressive increase from 2003 (23%) and 2007 (35%) levels. As a result, 2012 median household income ($88,462) is higher than we found in 2007 ($82,160). This continues to be much higher than 2010 American Community Survey (US Census) median income estimates for the United States ($50,046) and the State of Arizona ($46,789). Consistent with the 2007 survey, out-of- area attendees ($96,538) continue to have a much higher median household income than out-of-area attendees ($77,500). Still, local attendee median household income ($77,500) remains much higher than the median household income for all Maricopa County residents ($50,410). White Sox attendees have the highest median household income ($100,000), followed closely by Giants attendees ($97,692).

Just call off the letter in front of the correct amount. Cactus League, March, 2012 5 Place of Residence – Consistent with 2007 findings, more 2012 Cactus League attendees are residents from another state or country (56%) than are residents of the metropolitan Phoenix area (42%). This compares to a mix of 57% out-of-area and 39% “local” (Phoenix or Tucson) area residents in 2007. The balance (2%, down from 4%) are Arizona residents from outside the Phoenix metro area. Similar to previous findings, out-of-area attendees tend to be older and have higher annual household incomes than their local attendee counterparts. Which teams attract the most non-local attendees from another state or country? The Giants (68%, down from 74% in 2007), Rockies (63% up from 50% in 2007 when they trained in Tucson) and Dodgers (64%). Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks are the clear leader among local attendees (65%, up from 44% in 2007 when they trained in Tucson) – followed by the Brewers (53%, up from 31%). Overall, among the unweighted sample, there are 1,439 unique zip codes self-reported by United States resident attendees (182 from metro Phoenix, 50 from elsewhere in Arizona and 1,207 from another state). Refer to the Detailed Table 4b series for a frequency count by zip code. Among out-of-area attendees, 3% are from another country – primarily Canada (88%). Still, there were other foreign attendees from England, Belgium, Japan, Mexico and Puerto Rico.
