Abstract
Tourism as a branch of economy in many countries is a significant element stimulating economic growth. At the same time, it can indirectly affect the living conditions and life standard of the country’s residents. This paper attempts to identify the relationship between the economic situation of countries which are tourist reception areas and the financial situation and quality of life of their residents. The analysis covered a group of countries where tourism makes the highest contribution to generating the GDP. To this end, the authors have analysed selected macroeconomic indicators and social development indicators using a dynamic approach. In order to obtain objective results selected methods of statistical analysis were used. The results were confronted with those of international studies.
