This month, TEQ have released Bundaberg's Social Indicators Report for 2021.
This report examines the social impacts of tourism on the local community, as perceived by its residents. This is the 5th social indicators study, with previous studies run in 2010, 2013, 2017 and 2019.
Through the study, we see that sentiment towards tourism in the Bundaberg region is more positive than it was in 2019 and continues to be more positive than the Queensland average. Over half of the residents surveyed in the Bundaberg region would like their local area to attract more tourists, two thirds (67%) of residents ‘really like’ tourists, and nearly four in five (79%) are happy for continued tourism development!
This reassures us that our local community supports the work of Bundaberg Tourism and they understand the greater good that tourism and the visitor economy can bring to the community.
