WARREN, Ohio – The Trumbull County Tourism Bureau has released its 2023 Annual Report, which showcases the growth and positive impacts of its efforts and the county’s visitor industry. 

According to the report, Trumbull County experienced a 10% increase in visitors in 2023, welcoming a diverse range of travelers. Columbus, Cleveland and Pittsburgh were the top three visitor originations.

“If polled, many in our region are surprised to learn we have a robust travel economy here. Considering the industry in broad terms, reasons people are traveling to the area include business, golf and Mosquito Lake,” said Beth Kotwis Carmichael, executive director of the tourism bureau. “Through research, we also know that 50% of visitors come to visit family and friends. This is why it’s important to ensure our residents know all the great things there are to do and see in our county.”
