Description:

"This study is part of the Socioeconomic Research & Monitoring Program for the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary ... The baseline study for Recreation-Tourism in the Florida Keys was done for year 1995-96. The study was adopted in the Socioeconomic Research and Monitoring Program for the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary at a workshop attended by 50 social scientists and stakeholders in 1998. Stakeholders at this workshop recommended the study be replicated approximately every 10 years. We attempted to implement the study as a 10-year replication, but delays in funding resulted in a 12-year replication. The study serves as a 'Census' of recreation-tourism in the Florida Keys. The full study includes both visitors to the Florida Keys/Monroe County and residents of the Florida Keys/Monroe County. Here only some preliminary information from the visitor portion of the study is reported"--Intro.
