Contribution of Mexican visitors to Arizona's economy

Travel and tourism continues to be among the most important export industries driving Arizona’s economy, and Mexican visitors are an important contributor to this sector. This is the fourth study conducted by The University of Arizona since the late 1970s which assesses direct spending by Mexican visitors and estimates their total economic impact on Arizona. Primary data on expenditures were collected through a year-long survey starting in July 2007 and ending in June 2008.
