Tourism & Travel / food sciences | | Catalan term or phrase: superior mitjana | | This is from a table describing average tourist expenditures per day for wine tourists. This simply appears after the number of euros per day in the box for this. Any ideas? It is not educational level. |

Could it be that these tourists or group of tourists spend more than the average spending of tourists?

@Ben:
I don't know what the context is, but could it be that the average of this subgroup of tourists is higher than the average of all tourists? |

Asker: I don't see how that would really work. It's just the average. Of course, it's a mystery still. Highest average is the best I have come with so far, but that makes absolutely no sense, an average is an average is an average.
Asker: There are actually two groups, wine tourists and cultural tourists, but both fields have the percentage followed by "superior mitjana" in parenthesis.

Hi Ben!
Taking this into account, "There are actually two groups, wine tourists and cultural tourists, but both fields have the percentage followed by "superior mitjana" in parenthesis", it sounds as if the average expenditure of wine and cultural tourists is higher than that of regular tourists.
