    A city has tourism-based economy, because tourists go there. If they wouldn’t go there the economy would be based on different stuff.

      Often times these tourist cities are much richer than the manual labour cities though.

      Now if we’re talking about big cities, it’s mixed economies anyway and tourism will be part of it anyway, but it might not dominate.

      Sometimes that’s true, but often it is true that there simply would not be an economy otherwise. And instead would be rampant poverty.
