Is local culture solely supported by tourism?

Tourism in the Adirondacks has both blessed the region with a stable economy and harmed the region environmentally. If the Park was still only settled by those who are not involved in the tourism business, as long as the logging companies were sufficiently regulated. Today, the Adirondacks flourish in tourism and the local culture seems to be only alive due to those tourists. Many locals live there solely because of the tourists, and the next most prominent population is most likely those with second homes or those who live in the Adirondacks because they want to be closer to the wild - and they often do not embody the historical culture of the Park. Who would be left without the tourists?
