Americans’ Dream Vacation Destinations
Americans’ Dream Vacation Destinations
A new report used internet search data to find each state’s “dream travel destination.” It’s not THE #1 spot . . . but the one that each state is searching more intensely than other states.
Here’s what they came up with:
North Carolina chose Panama and South Carolina went with Jamaica
Hot Spots: A bunch of us just want to be warmer. 10 states picked Florida cities. Four more picked Hawaii. Three want to hit up Vegas. Two want to enjoy Southern California. And five are fine with Arizona, either Phoenix or Tucson.
Coincidentally, people in Arizona want the COOLER temps of Seattle, as do people in Alabama, who are searching vacations in Denver. Floridians and Georgians are looking to go to New York.
And speaking of the South, there’s some trading spaces going on . . . Mississippians are just looking for a shorter trip over to Houston. And people in Louisiana want to hop over to Atlanta.
There’s one other DOMESTIC travel dream. The people in Wyoming are apparently searching a trip to Minot, North Dakota.
4. As for international trips, South Dakota is looking to get to Japan . . . as is California and Hawaii. Thailand is the destination for Oregon and Nebraska. And people in Oklahoma are looking for a culture shock in Dubai.
5. There are some typical Caribbean-style destinations, with a series of states zeroing in on Jamaica, the Bahamas, the Dominican Republic, Cancun, Costa Rica, Panama, and Puerto Rico.
Two states, Virginia and Maryland, are really hot on El Salvador, which is interesting.
And only ONE, Massachusetts, is eyeing Europe. Greece, specifically.
Canada didn’t get ANY love, but Mexico did. People in Illinois want to go to Mexico City, along with Texans.
