About the Regional Image Survey
The Regional Council of Kainuu has commissioned a regional image survey every four years since 1997. The survey approach has slightly varied over the years, but the results have always been pointing in the same direction; Kainuu is known for its nature.
According to the latest regional image survey, conducted in 2021, Kainuu is slightly better known compared to the previous study. The respondents’ perceptions of the region are positive and the general perception of Kainuu is cautiously positive.
Based on the previous results, Kainuu is most attractive as a tourist destination. The nature tourism boom and the recreational opportunities in Vuokatti are the biggest and most important factors, not to mention the cultural events of Kainuu.
Multilocationality fuels the growth of Kainuu. The perceptions of young people, for example, the willingness to move to the region, are surprisingly high.
