Most of the respondents have lived in Indianapolis for at least 2 years (83.8%). Among them, about 50.7% have lived here for 10 years or more.

Two items, “clean/no litter” and “no crimes/theft”, were excluded from the factor analysis due to their low internal associations. The Cronbach’s Alpha of all the other items was .937. As a result, 24 items were entered for the factor analysis. The result of the factor analysis is presented in Table 3. Tourism Today - Fall 2007 - Full Paper
