摘要：The rigorous assessment of tourism regional development is one of the requirements of a modern statistic research. It is meant to provide the possibility of precisely knowing what has happened and to quantify the general trends. Taking into account these facts, in this paper I want to present the main statistic means of multifactor ranking some administrative-territorial units. Using them, I want to classify the developing regions in Romania from the point of view of the level of tourism development. The multifactor ranking of regions is essential in order to assess the existing discrepancies and to draw up the development strategies. Unfortunately, the statistic assessment provides us insuffi cient data in order to quantify the development level of regional tourism. However, I have selected a set of indexes which have allowed me to make a hierarchy of the Romanian regions from the point of view of the tourism development degree.
