Houston Leads U.S. Metros When It Comes to Entertainment Spending
2/21/22
对于每个人来说,休斯顿充满了娱乐选择. Whether it’s grabbing a drink at a local bar, watching a live sporting event, 或者欣赏休斯顿交响乐团的本地表演, you will never be without something to do in this town. Because of this multitude of entertainment options, it may come as little surprise that Houston ranks No. 1 among U.S. metros in spending on entertainment.
The study by the U.S. 美国劳工统计局(Bureau of Labor Statistics)在以下领域对“娱乐”进行了衡量:
费用和入场费——从参加体育活动的费用到参加体育赛事的入场费, movies, concerts, and plays. 还包括健康和乡村俱乐部会员资格以及旅行娱乐费用.
Television, radio and sound equipment
Pets, toys, hobbies and playground equipment
其他娱乐设备和服务-从运动设备和娱乐车辆到摄影设备和用品.
While other categories like audiovisual equipment, pets, toys, 从2019年到2020年,爱好方面的支出持平或略有增长, 家庭在学费和入场费上的典型年度支出从880美元降至425美元.
在2019冠状病毒病大流行期间及其之前的2020年春季关闭期间, 全国在娱乐上的开支估计减少了5%.7%, driven by a 51.7% reduction in fees and admissions. As a whole, 娱乐行业的收入从2019年第四季度的610亿美元下降到2020年第二季度的230亿美元. Revenues eventually rebounded to roughly $49.5 billion in the second quarter of 2021.
Despite the setback during the two-year period, 休斯顿逐渐恢复,年均娱乐支出达到6美元,040, outranking other U.S. metros by almost 2%.
As stated in the Partnership’s 2022 Employment Forecast, 在2019冠状病毒病限制和授权后重新开放的艺术和娱乐的全部好处尚未显现. The traditional drivers such as local population growth, income, leisure time, out-of-town visitors, corporate donations, fitness resolutions, 被压抑的消费需求将在2022年刺激休斯顿娱乐行业的持续增长.
