<br /> The general endorsement of most of the activities, is <br /> reinforced by the breakout of responses by status, sector and <br /> ethnicity shown in Table 13a. Only in a few instances is <br /> there a disparity among the types of respondents. Students, <br /> for example, favored "regional sports complex" considerably <br /> more than residents (61.1% compared with 46.4%) <br /> African-Americans showed a sizable difference from <br /> Hispanics and Anglos on only two activities: "nature center <br /> and preserve;" and "tax abatement for new business". <br /> The most obvious difference in the sector responses is <br /> that the Central sector showed either the highest or lowest <br /> rating for more of the activities than any of the other <br /> sectors, ranking highest on "cultural center" and "convention <br /> center" and ranking lowest on all but two ("tax abatements <br /> for new business" and "race track") of the other eleven <br /> activities. <br /> The spread between sectors was largest for <br /> "recreational theme parks" where Central had 31.8% definitely <br /> or probably yes and South had 68.4%. In only two other <br /> activities was the spread over 30%: "professional conference <br /> and training centers" ranked highest in the East sector (80%) <br /> and lowest in the Central sector (45.5%); "convention center" <br /> ranked highest in the Central sector (63.6%) and lowest in <br /> the South (31. 6%). <br /> [See Table 13a] <br /> 46 <br />
