    I live in Orlando, so I feel the pain of over tourism, even though I love our visitors (I really do, a good part of business is derived from tourists). At least visitors to Florida know that there is cool stuff all over the state, so even if they spend most of their vacation in Orlando, they still go out to the coasts, or to Miami, etc.

    Japan has done a great job of attracting people to their country, now they just have to do a better job of getting them to spread out.

      They have that problem with their own population.

        I’m aware. I keep seeing stories about how cheap land and housing is in the rural areas. Great houses just sitting empty. It’s starting to attract Americans.
