@pluralistic Arizona Republicans while dominating state gov't prohibited localities from regulating short-term rentals in our neighborhoods. Our current Mayor of Flagstaff and City Council are working to mitigate the harms done to quality of life for year-round residents. Democrats and Independents who believe in local democracy must flip the state legislature to give back to cities our local regulatory power. #STR #azleg #Flagstaff #airbnb

This STR issue is less complicated if you boil away a lot of nonsense.
Are you part of the culture that draws tourism?
If the answer is no, the answer is no. No. No.
Someone moving somewhere culturally significant to have a STR fund a retirement, or as a side-hustle, needs to have cultural roots. Period.
Foolishness thrives in places like Hawai'i and New Orleans where those who have made a concrete historic cultural contribution are being pushed out by neocolonialists.
My neighborhood is dealing with the parasitic nature of #ShortTermRental homes right now, but the situation is not as horrific as what this neighborhood is experiencing.
Please think twice before using #Airbnb and other #str housing. It's bad for the people living in those neighborhoods. The business model has ZERO accountability by design because tenants turn over constantly.
