February Statistics

[Deleted member 3000]

It was a record February, smashing the old one by over 20%. It was even larger than March back in 2007.

2,181; with about 51% on the Camino Frances, 60/40 male/female split. Fifteen percent were Korean, but only 3.24% USA. Ireland topped the English speaking countries at 4.82% (let the language trolling begin).

Thanks. I always enjoy reading the stats. Nearly 5 times as many Koreans as Americans. Interesting.

I also enjoy these reports a lot. I know that it's not statistically significant, but the number of pilgrims who reported the Invierno as their camino this February is down two from 2017. From 12 down to 10! Come on Invierno pilgrims, time to get out there!

I've noticed that the Koreans are really upping their numbers, really good to see.

Yikes! We're gonna need a bigger Camino...!

It will be interesting to see the month to month comparisons, this year vs last, to see if the trend continues into the milder weather.

Note, the next 'Holy Year' is not until 2021. Wanna bet they hit 400,000 then?
