The paper discusses the results of a survey carried out in Turin, concerning the residents opinions on their town as a touristic product and on touristic actractive capacity of Turin. Residents constitute local community that is, in the tourist’ perceptions, an important part of product. Residents also are a part of touristic front office and the first salers of their town; social and cultural characteristics of residents are, in this sense, a significant factor in the tourist feedback evaluation.
