We moved to a booming resort town last year. We’re seeing a similar attitude among the locals.

There are about 250 units of short term rentals in a city of thousands and thousands of housing units. Neighborhood are going up with more units than the entire short term rental market.

To say short term rentals are driving cost is insane when there is clearly a wholesale shortage.

That being said, I understand the legitimate frustration with what are commercial entities moving into residential areas.
