Tourism and the Jersey Shore
Posted Jan 23, 2009 @ 11:45 am, Viewed by 342 Visitors, Read 351 Times.There are many concerns along the New Jersey shore, especially in towns that receive most of their funds from tourism like Avalon or Sea Isle City, about what this summer will bring. A sucessful tourist season will help to keep the life in the Sea Isle City real estate market. After all tourism is New Jersey's third largest industry.
That may come as a shock to some with all the industries that New Jersey has, that tourism is the third largest. One study done by the state showed that for every dollar the state invests in tourism - we get back $36 into New Jersey’s economy. For many coastal towns in New Jersey tourism is the sole industry. These towns especially are working to ensure the 2009 summer season at the Jersey Shore is a sucessful one.
What the 2009 summer season will bring is yet to be determined. Many involved with local rentals say initial forecasts do not look too bad. Much better than the news we read in the paper everyday. It should be a favorable year for the shore towns, as it currently looks. Hopefully this trend continues throughout the winter.
