Interesting statistics

I was poking around online for some demographic information about Aspen to post on my new photoblog when I came across the following information of the Aspen Chamber Resort Association website which I found pretty interesting. So I thought I'd share:

Average daily population in Aspen: 20,871. Occasionally, this number spikes to over 27,000. Generally the heaviest days for visitation occur during July and early August. Winter months are somewhat slower although Christmas/New Year's numbers regularly approach 25,000**.
