Disneyland has gotten the reputation of a locals park (is it still? most likely). Time share concepts don’t sell well out here. VGC was a tough sell. Cast members would try to solicited your attention. (Similar to VDH now). That small
DVC spot took time to sell. These VGC points that come available, don’t attract the new buyers. That price is nuts for anyone but the add-on emotion (heart vs head) buyer. There are so many more members now, making VGC appears more popular and desired than during its original selling period.
Disneyland puts out only ONE pass option for residents. WDW has ALL but one pass option for residents. Guest numbers stats are sourced different on each coast. (Glance at that screen after Spaceship Earth). DVC will continue to sell more daily/monthly/yearly points for Florida than California.
Nowadays it has gotten harder for a family to do a proper visit without multiple days. The one and two day, rip through the side by side parks, is long gone. Even locals have to be selective each visit now. (Not enough Disneylands to keep up with the population growth). 1955 Anaheim at 14-15K range, now well over 340K (Just Anaheim alone!).
VDH will have Guides (or these Counselors) employed here for a long time, selling into the 2030’s, as we continue to watch each incentive period.
