Probably true enough. But there are a couple of people near us who do that and sometimes more...and THEY'VE been homeowners here for years. Conversely the renters nearby do an admirable job at keeping up their properties and acting considerately toward their neighbors. Recently a house three doors down was purchased by a couple from Wisconsin who will be renting it out (don't know if it is airb&b or not), and they made sure the neighbors knew to call them if things get out of hand.
Lots of "problems" that news sources and discussion groups around here beat to death, really don't seem to be.
