This is obviously a big week for vacation travel, and one thing we can all be proud of as Americans is how many people come from around the world to visit this great nation. All those tourists are a real boon to our economy, too.
The nation sending the most tourists to America is of course Canada, which spent $26.1 billion in tourist dollars here last year. But other nations make strong contributions as well. Following Canada, these are the nations with the most visitor spending in the U.S. in 2012:
Japan: $16.6 billion
Great Britain: $13.0 billion
Mexico: $10.1 billion
Brazil: $9.3 billion
China: $9.2 billion
Germany: $7.0 billion
Australia: $5.5 billion
France: $5.3 billion
India: $4.9 billion
