5. From The Henry Ford Economic Impact Analysis 2009A&K
Research
In 2009, The Henry Ford hosted over 1,500,000 visitors, spending
almost $135 million in the Detroit area.
The Henry Ford visitors contributed $7.7 million in state sales tax
revenue, of which $2.0 million was generated by gas tax
revenue.
Groups with out-of-state visitors spent almost $67 million in the
local community, accounting for 50% of the amount spent by The
Henry Ford visitors.
The Henry Ford visitors provided a direct impact on the statewide
economy of more than $121 million and almost $200 million when
secondary affects are added. These figures represent the results of
spending that stayed within the Michigan economy.
Out-of-state visitors created an impact of just over $100 million
in the state economy based on the direct and secondary effects of
their spending.
