USA Welcomed 75 Million Visitors

Chinese citizens rank sixth on the list of most frequent visitors arriving in the United States of America

According to ShareAmerica, most tourists still arrive in the US from Canada and Mexico. The number of visitors from China – the sixth largest group – increased by more than 21 percent compared to the 2013 level.

About 41 percent of international visitors who came to the United States in 2014 arrived in the country through New York, Miami, or Los Angeles.

President Obama made expanding international tourism a priority for his administration. His goal is to attract 100 million foreign tourists annually by 2021. The US Departments of Commerce and Homeland Security recently submitted a report to the president on a strategy to attract more foreign tourists by providing a "best-in-class arrival experience," which will help the United States become an even more popular destination.
