Figure 8. Education level of visitors (by season)
The level of education reported by the respondents was consistent across sites (Table
11, Figure 9). A distinctive value that appears among sites is the comparatively larger
standard deviation in the education level reported at the Visitor’s Center. This indicates
a wider range in the values reported and may mean that, in terms of education, the
population at the Visitor’s Center is slightly more diverse.
