Section 26
Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation
This section presents data on the arts,
entertainment, and recreation economic
sector of the economy, and personal recreational activities, the arts and humanities, and domestic and foreign travel.
Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation
Industry—The U.S. Census Bureau’s Service Annual Survey, Arts, Entertainment,
and Recreation Sector, provides estimates
of operation revenue of taxable firms and
revenues and expenses of firms exempt
from federal taxes for industries in this
sector of the economy. Data beginning
1998 are based on the North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS).
Most establishments were previously classified in the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) in services, some in retail trade.
This new sector is comprised of industries
which existed previously, were revised
from previous industry definitions, or are
completely new industries. Among those
which existed previously are amusement
and theme parks. Revised industries
include museums. New industries include
theater companies and dinner theaters.
The following URL contains detailed
information about NAICS and provides
a comparison of the SIC and NAICS
<http://www.census.gov/epcd/www
/naics.html>. See also the text in Section
15, Business Enterprise.
The 1997 Economic Census was the first
economic census to cover the new Information Sector of the economy. The Census, conducted every 5 years, for the
years ending ‘‘2’’ and ‘‘7,’’ provides information on the number of establishments,
receipts, payroll and paid employees for
the U.S. and various geographic levels.
Recreation and leisure activities—
Data on the participation in various recreation and leisure time activities are based
on several sample surveys. Data on participation in fishing, hunting, and other
forms of wildlife-associated recreation are
published periodically by the U.S. Department of Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service.
The most recent data are from the 2001
survey. Data on participation in various
sports recreation activities are published
by the National Sporting Goods Association. Mediamark, Inc. also conducts periodic surveys on sports and leisure activities, as well as other topics.
Parks and recreation—The Department
of the Interior has responsibility for
administering the national parks. The
National Park Service publishes information on visits to national park areas in its
annual report, National Park Statistical
Abstract. The National Parks: Index (year)
is an annual report which contains brief
descriptions, with acreages, of each area
administered by the service, plus certain
‘‘related’’ areas. The annual Federal Recreation Fee Report summarizes the prior
year’s recreation fee receipts and recreation visitation statistics for seven federal
land managing agencies. Statistics for
state parks are compiled by the National
Association of State Park Directors.
Travel— Statistics on arrivals and departures to the United States are reported by
the International Trade Administration
(ITA), Office of Travel & Tourism Industries
(OTTI). Data on domestic travel, business
receipts and employment of the travel
industry, and travel expenditures are published by the research department of the
Travel Industry Association (TIA) and the
national nonprofit center for travel and
tourism research located in Washington,
DC. Other data on household transportation characteristics are in Section 23,
Transportation.
Statistical reliability—For a discussion
of statistical collection and estimation,
sampling procedures, and measures of
statistical reliability applicable to Census
Bureau data, see Appendix III.

Financial data are those associated with the National Park System. Certain other functions of the National Park Service
(principally the activities absorbed from the former Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service in 1981) are excluded.
2
Includes funds carried over from prior years. 3 For calendar year. Includes other areas, not shown separately. 4 For 1990,
combined data for North Cascades National Park and two adjacent National Recreation Areas are included in National Parks
total. 5 Includes military areas. 6 Federal land only, as of December 31. Federal land acreages, in addition to National Park
Service administered lands, also include lands within national park system area boundaries but under the administration of other
agencies. Year-to-year changes in the Federal lands figures include changes in the acreages of these other lands and hence often
differ from ‘‘net acquisition.’’
