America's Most Visited Tourist Sites ..

After last week's posting on tourism in Garrett County I accidentally found some data on America's 25 most visited tourists sites in Forbes Magazine. I've compiled this data in a table and added Garrett County to the mix to show just where it would fit in if it attracted tourists at the the same per capita rate as Mykonsos. As you can see this puts Garrett County right there with all the corporate theme parks, a number of urban centers and even ahead of tourist havens such as Atlantic City, NJ which I previously mentioned in a Garrett County tourism posting. I don't know about you but I'd rather not see Garrett County turned into a theme park or the 14th most visited site in the US.
