Number of Trips to NH During Summer 2007
Respondents were asked, “How many trips for business or pleasure did you make to/within New Hampshire during the months of June, July, or August, 2007”? Table 8 presents the specifics which indicate that, on average, day-trippers made more trips than their overnight counterparts (5.6 vs. 4.7). This larger average is attributed to the one-quarter of day-trippers making 7 or more visits during the summer season. By comparison, the average number of visits from those residing in Mid-Atlantic states was noticeably lower although almost half (47.3%) of these overnight visitors reported making more than one trip during the summer.
