Loudoun County Residents

Tourism In Your Community

As a Loudoun County resident, you live in:

• A nation where travel is a basic freedom to be enjoyed at the spur of the moment or after weeks or months of planning.  
• A wonderful place with an abundance of things to see and do.  
• A region that is attractive to visitors who want to experience our rich culture, tour our mansions, farms, and heritage sites, sample our award wining wines, attend an event, or simply find a place to getaway.

Visitors help pay your taxes.   That’s right, in 2005 the economic impact of tourism on Loudoun County was $54 million. This means that every household in Loudoun County paid $602 less in taxes thanks to visitor spending here! (Source: Virginia Tourism Corporation)
