46 Million Tourists
According to Bloomberg's radio address on Sunday, 46 million people visited New York in 2007. Insert joke about how many fanny packs, faded jeans, and/or white sneakers that means here.
Obviously that’s a lot of people. But all these tourists bring money ($28 billion, apparently) to the local economy, even if you account for a certain percentage spending their dollars at McDonald’s or the Gap. And there’s something to be said for living in a city that’s so desirable to so many. So, welcome, strangers. Just leave your fanny pack at home.
