Found this while searching for DL attendance data. Interesting study done by UCLA Business School.

Was surprised to see that attendance to Disneyland is nearly the same after 20 years (12 mill 1986, 14 mill 2004), if anything, DCA might be hurting DL attendance.

I think some of the overall numbers are skewed, because a lot of people visit DCA and DL within the same day, while Knotts, Universal, and the rest are each single day visits.

I had the same thought and would agree. I don't know how one could go about correcting for this, though.
