All the pilgrim numbers for the first 6 months of 2013

Wow! That's a big increase for the Americans, and an interesting continuing increase for the other English-speaking sources as well.

Thanks for this, John!

I already knew the pilgrim numbers have increased greatly over the past years, but it's quite astonishing to see the exact stats (I agree with Kitsambler: Americans from around 1100 to 4500 in 4 years!). Also found the variety in starting places fascinating with lots of <1% towns.

I'll be starting my Camino from SJPdP - it's a bit of a relief that 'only' 13,5 percent of the pilgrims start here. Summer will probably be busy, but at least it's relatively less crowded in the beginning. Looking forward to the adventure.

Buen Camino,

Tom
