Large cities	Reluctance to disperse tourist traffic: to be able to predict where crowding is present Positive attitude toward the deconcentration of tourist traffic	“I would prefer tourists to stay concentrated where they are because I will have peace in places known only to me”.“Such distraction is unnecessary; residents know where to meet tourists and where they can have peace”.“When tourists are concentrated, I have more freedom to move around and enjoy ‘my’ attractions”.“The number of tourists concentrated in one place disturbs the residents less than the same number of tourists scattered”.“If the tourists dispersed, more residents would come to the Market Square”.“It would be good for us if there was tourist traffic in many places, and more of us would benefit from it”.“It is very positive to develop and create new attractions in new places, which allows young people to find work”.
Small towns	Deconcentration is unimportant; what matters is the promotion of existing tourist attractions to attract visitors to small towns.	“It would be good if tourists also came to us, it would provide our town with new jobs”.
