This isn't to impugn anyone it is simply a fact of life here. Many many people rent out their homes so that the busy season gets longer and longer here by the month. While many people, incuding myself, understand this situation and manage it well, it does not change the fact that realistically it affects your quality of life in just about every respect.
I agree with the idea of managing the changes that occur with the seasonal residents and renters/guests. It is a fact of life here in TV. You can fight it and get angry/frustrated/resentful, or you can accept that for 4-5 months of the year you have to plan more to do the things you want to do. Remember that our seasonal residents are paying amenities fees all year, but we get the amenities all year long.

I always get a chuckle when I hear people grouse about the seasonal residents. When asked, they admit that their seasonal neighbors aren't the problem, it's those OTHER ones that clog the restaurants, golf courses, or line dancing classes. You know, THEM.
