Camping in the United States
Camping is a popular and relatively affordable way for people to escape from the hustle and bustle of urban areas when taking a vacation. It is seen as an alternative to a resort holiday or a city break. To many there is a special connection with camping as it allows them to appreciate the beauty of an area’s natural surroundings. In the United States, around 67 percent of Americans living in the West go camping at least occasionally. The three most common types of accommodations when going camping are tents, RVs, and cabins, with tents being the most popular option among Americans.
Sporting Goods Retail in the U.S.
Although there are many options available for where and how to purchase sporting and outdoors equipment, especially with the growing popularity of online retailers, stores such as Dick’s Sporting Goods, Bass Pro, and Academy Sports + Outdoors are the top performers. In 2017, Dick’s Sporting Goods was the top leisure retailer in the United States.
