The second table gives statistics showing the countries whose residents went to Australia in 1975 and 2005. In both years, the largest number of visitors came from Japan, followed by South Korea and Europe. Britain, the United States and China also had many people traveling to Australia in these years. In fact, the number of people visiting Australia grew in every one of these countries. In terms of growth rate, the three Asian countries rank ahead of the rest.

Is the use of growth rate appropriate here? Is it too ambiguous?



Thank you.

You mean it could be confused with the growth rate of the population in those nations, I assume.

It's a little ambiguous.  Maybe you could say visitation rate?  Or maybe ... terms of increased rates of visitation, the three ...?
