Abstract

Abstract. This study examines the impact of rural tourism on the public welfare of Desa Wukirsari. We use monthly income and consumption expenditure as a proxy for welfare and categorize it based on people's jobs into five categories, i.e., craftsman, entrepreneur, laborer, employee, and farmer. We conduct a non-parametric test for the data because of the violation of the normality assumption. The results show that both the people's income and consumption expenditure increase as of Desa Wukirsari became rural tourism. We also find the same conclusions based on people's jobs. These results empirically prove that the welfare of the people of Desa Wukirsari improved after rural tourism. The people of Desa Wukirsari can utilize their resources to improve their quality of life.
