A 2024 study analyzed the potential level of risk caused by concentrated tourism in a series of popular travel destinations in 2023. It assessed the severity of risk based on a range of metrics, such as the local economy's dependence on tourism and the concentration of travelers at the destination. It then assigned a score from five to one to each destination, with one representing the highest level of risk. Based on the study, Dubrovnik recorded the highest risk level in four of the six metrics analyzed, including density in concentration and environmental impact.

The source specified that it analyzed information from vendors, publicly available databases, and press searches, as well as measuring airline traffic, accommodation booking activity, and traveler sentiment. It then used this data to indicate the potential effect of concentrated tourism across six metrics. Finally, it assigned the selected destinations a score depending on the levels of potential risk for each specific metric. The index score was based on a five-point scale, with five representing the lowest risk level and one indicating the highest risk level.
