Tourism Intensity
Tourism intensity is a key indicator that measures the presence of tourists relative to the resident population. It combines two figures: the number of nights spent by tourists and the local population. To compare the inbound tourist population to the local population, it is essential to consider the daily average presence of tourists and residents within a specific time-period and area.

Skills mismatch indicators
Skills mismatch refers to gaps and imbalances in skills available in the labour market. These include over- or under-qualification, labour market shortages or surpluses for specific qualifications or skills, hiring difficulties, and underemployment or unemployment for specific qualifications or skills. Different groups within the labour force may be affected, and different sectors or occupations may encounter more problems than others (Kriechel & Vetter, 2019).
