Abstract

Tourism is one of the main engines of economic development in several countries and Mexico is no exception. In rural areas it is a developmental strategy to face the agricultural crisis. The research analyzed the economic impact of tourism from the perception of merchants or tourism service providers in rural communities in Mexico. Non-probability “snowball” sampling was used and 54 people who own establishments near tourist attractions were interviewed. Respondents were found to be young adults. Businesses are small family enterprises that primarily market handicrafts and food. More than sixty percent of establishments rent a space to work. Few jobs were created and most of them are occupied by people from the community. Not having their establishments registered resulted in a low collection of tax revenue and almost half paid a fee to an organization to let them work. It is concluded that economic activities provide a good income to the interviewees, compared to other work options.
