Abstract

Venice being an iconic example, several popular locations are de-populating as residents are driven out by tourism. We address the complexity of residents' decision to stay by adopting the complexity theory. The study runs a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to understand the impact of perceived tourism benefits (economic, environmental, and socio-cultural), place attachment, and length of residence on residents' intention to stay. The findings highlight five different combinations of antecedents that distinctly but equally contribute to high intention to stay. The results further establish that economic benefits are more relevant for long-term residents than newer ones.
