Tourism is second only to Orlando on the southern seaboard.7. right to work state  8.

They are always looking for revenue and ways to drive tourism.  

Nashville has great tourism, great rental migration for work and appreciation generating property everywhere. 

It also makes me more comfortable.In order to answer these questions, I've come up with a few measures/ideas:-US bureau of economics travel and tourism satellites report the economic impact of tourism in their state.

For tourism, Anchorage is a destination, I would consider Palmer/hatchers pass a destination too, but not as much for Wasilla.

I started a boutique tourism magazine and travelled all over Australia for 4 years.

Also, Barcelona has outlawed short term rentals from Air BnB in order to control issues they've been having with tons of tourists, and they've been fining people for renting without permits:https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2017/aug/11/barcelona-spain-anti-tourism-protest-segway-banI believe renting your place out for longer than 31 days is possible, and there are property management companies that could help with that, but I just couldn't find anything in the area I wanted to be in that was less than 200,000 Euros.

I'm watching median home price, year over year, and tourism for vegas strip.

I want my investments to be in an area with a diverse job economy, population growth, jobs not based on tourism but in public and private sector, strong renting population and a reasonable point of purchase compared to what my tenant will be paying in rent.  

We'll also be raising over $10K for an orphanage in Vietnam at the event :) I know you said you like giving back, so if you want to volunteer, we'd be happy to have your help!
