Streetwear Shift
Why Gen Z is transforming fashion with eco conscious style choices
A growing number of Americans are choosing to explore their own country rather than travel abroad this year. According to a recent Harris Poll survey, nearly 70% of U.S. travelers plan to take domestic trips in 2025, citing affordability, convenience, and safety as top reasons. Popular destinations include national parks, coastal getaways, and historic cities such as Savannah, Charleston, and San Diego. The surge in local tourism reflects a broader trend of travelers seeking shorter, experience-driven vacations that support local economies. Travel experts say this shift is boosting the U.S. hospitality sector, with increased bookings in small towns and scenic nature destinations. As international travel costs rise, domestic tourism is set to remain the cornerstone of the American travel economy this year.
