Nevada Joins Texas, New Hampshire, Colorado, Maine, Montana, and More as US Tourism Continues Its Freefall for Eight Months Straight and Is Projected to Decline Until the End of 2025 - Travel And Tour World
Nevada now joins Texas, New Hampshire, Colorado, Maine, Montana, and many others as US tourism continues its freefall for first eighth months and is expected to drop until at least the end of 2025. The country is watching Nevada for an alarming trend. Fewer and fewer tourists are spending nights in the state’s hotels and gaming in its casinos. Texas is equally affected. New Hampshire and Maine are also suffering extensive border losses to Canada. Colorado is still struggling in its mountain towns. Montana businesses adjacent to Glacier National Park are still buckling beneath lost spending.
‘Since freefalling is an accepted term, the same could be said for US tourism. For the past 8 months, spending and arrivals have been on a freefall. Nevada, Texas, New Hampshire, Colorado, Maine, and Montana are not the only ones. The entire country is experiencing a plummeting demand of travel. Analysts assumptions on projections are freefalling the country’s travel estimations to 2025, thus making the slump one of the most devastating periods in US travel history.’
The figures presented show gaping holes in vacation revenue across states. Nevada alone is missing millions in tourism revenue. Texas is grappling with a dip in travel activity after a brief moderate upsurge. The absence of Canadian motorists is forcing New Hampshire and Maine to make do with far less. European and Canadian patrons appear to have vanished from Colorado resorts. Canadian outflow to Montana results in a severe dip in domestic revenue. The losses from abroad have compounded the domestic recession and have led to a chronic fall in tourism activity across the US that commenced months ago. It is poised only to worsen through the end of 2025, potentially leaving large gaps in revenue across several states.
A National Tourism Slump
The start of 2025 marked the United States with the expectation of continuing expansion in travel. Unfortunately, these expectations have swiftly turned into warnings of disaster. In the first five months of the year, international arrivals to the United States decreased by 2.4% compared to 2024. The fact that arrivals by April were projected to fall by only 1.1% indicates how now, the speed at which that decline is accelerating is much greater. As of June, arrivals remained 6.2% lower, building on the 7.0% and 8.0% descents observed in May and March, respectively.
