✓ Longwoods International began tracking American travelers in 1985, and has conducted large-scale

syndicated visitor research quarterly since 1990.

✓ In 2007, our proprietary Longwoods Travel USA® program was migrated from mail to online, with the

benefits of rapid turnaround, enhanced flexibility and interactivity, as well as greater respondent

involvement.

✓ It is currently the largest ongoing study conducted of American travelers, providing our clients with more

reliable data and greater ability to home in on key market segments of interest.

✓ This report provides an overview for Oregon’s domestic tourism business in 2017.

✓ The visitor research program is designed to provide:

✓ Estimates of domestic overnight and day visitor volumes to Oregon.

✓ A profile of Oregon’s performance within its overnight marketable travel market.

➢ Each quarter, a random, projectable sample of adult members (18 years of age and over) of a major

U.S. consumer panel is invited to participate in the Travel USA® survey:

➢ Selected to be representative of the U.S. adult population

➢ For the 2017 travel year, this yielded :

➢ 329,470 trips for analysis nationally:

➢ 232,317 overnight trips

➢ 97,153 day trips

➢ For Oregon, the following sample was achieved in 2017:

➢ 6,005 trips:

➢ 4,020 overnight trips, 1,930 of which were marketable trips

➢ 1,985 day trips, 1,152 of which were marketable trips

➢ For analysis, data were weighted on key demographics to correct for any differences between the

sample and U.S. population targets.
