While I do not have any issue with snowbirds and renters (they are an important part of a successful economy here), I do think they have an effect on the crowds.

In my limited experience, some snowbirds and most renters ( particularly the one month renters) understandably want to make the most of their time here and try their best to participate in everything. Whereas year round residents are happy to stay at home from time to time. JMHO.
