VENTURA COUNTY, CA, UNITED STATES, May 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Tourism spending in Ventura County reached $1.93 Billion in 2024, contributing to a statewide travel spending increase of 3.0%, according to new economic impact research released today by Visit California.

Visit California’s annual report on the economic impact of tourism revealed travel spending in Ventura County supported 16,620 local jobs and generated 68 Million in local tax revenues, which fund essential services and programs in the community.

“Tourism continues to be a cornerstone of economic vitality in Ventura County. From our coastal beauty and vibrant downtowns to the awe-inspiring Channel Islands National Park, our region offers a unique California experience that continues to draw visitors from near and far," said Brian Tucker, President and CEO, Ventura County Lodging Association. “The visitor economy supports local jobs, uplifts our small businesses, and enhances quality of life for our residents. Despite ongoing economic challenges and shifts in international travel, we remain committed to welcoming visitors from within the state and beyond to experience our incredible destination.”

May is California Tourism Month, and Visit California and Ventura County Coast urge Californians to explore the Golden State. By keeping travel dollars in-state, Californians can support local economies and regional businesses hit hardest by a softening economy, ensuring the state’s competitive edge remains strong.
