Tourism, welfare, correlation, regression, segregationAbstract
The aim of this research is to look at the effects of tourism spatially and examine its impact on the aggregate welfare of the population. Therefore, the author asks two fundamental questions in this research. First, is the rapid demand for tourism capable of creating new regional growth poles spatially? Second, is increasing tourism receipts able to create welfare effects. The method used in this research is simple time series correlation and regression. The findings in this research are that the dependent variables tend to have a strong influence on education and employment indicators. Tourism seems to only have a false effect on economic activity in North Lombok Regency. It is proven that since this district was expanded, there have been no significant growth poles in this region. Regional and economic segregation is still clearly visible today.
