The research investigates the complex connection between the development of tourism and the quality of life (QOL) of inhabitants in Nigerian communities, emphasising the sector's role beyond economic benefits to encompass social, cultural, and environmental impacts, Utilizing a descriptive research design and quantitative methods, standardised questionnaires were used to collect data from a sample of 450 residents. The research targeted villages known for tourist attractions, incorporating major cities and smaller communities. The data analysis involved descriptive and inferential statistics. Results indicate a strong inclination among the population towards supporting tourism due to perceived communal benefits, with significant engagement in cultural exchange activities and advocacy for tourism promotion. The research concludes that tourism development has a notable impact on residents' socio-economic conditions, influencing their quality of life and support for further tourism initiatives. This research contributes to the understanding of tourism's socio-economic effects on community residents, offering insights for policymakers and stakeholders in tourism planning and development. |
