tourists pájara spain has rate sixth highest inhabitant per

Pájara has the sixth highest rate of tourists per inhabitant in Spain
#1
With 48 tourists per inhabitant per year, it is in first place among the municipalities of the archipelago in this statistic



The Holidu Portal states in an article on tourist overcrowding in Spain that Pájara is the municipality in the Canary Islands with the highest rate of tourists per inhabitant during the 2023 season, with 48 tourists per inhabitant.



In this sense, 931,321 tourists arrived in Pájara last year, of which 823,550 are foreigners.



The portal relates the data to overcrowding, without proposing other fundamental criteria to reach this extreme, such as the data of the extension of the municipality. For example, Salou, on the Costa Dorada, has an area of 15.1 square kilometers and 48.6 tourists per inhabitant. Pájara of 383.52 kilometers being the largest municipality in the Canary Islands and 48 tourists per inhabitant. Salou has 30,204 inhabitants and Pájara 22,000.


When information stops making sense



In this case, Holidu's information hints at some significant data, but in the case of Pájara, with a small population, about 22,000 inhabitants and with a large area in terms of its territory, it cannot be overcrowded at the level of Salou, which with 15.1 square kilometers of municipality receives 1,284,275 tourists a year.



It is reminiscent of the data handled by the AEMET in terms of forest fires, in which the numerical models sing High Risk of Fires in Fuerteventura when there is heat and wind, without crossing the fundamental data, which is that there should be something that burns.



In this sense, the lack of knowledge of the terrain makes statistics become a death trap. This undersigned had a professor back in the Pleistocene who sentenced.." there are lies, big lies and then there are the statistics"... Well, that's it.
