Where is Airbnb the Best Deal? Let’s Look at This Map and Find Out Together

Okay I lied — you actually have to go to priceonomics to see the map and I can’t go with you that is a journey you have to take alone, but I can tell you that when you get there you will find out that renting an apartment on Arbnb is 21.2% cheaper than a hotel room and renting just a room in someone’s house is 49.5% cheaper. But those facts are less interesting than the the drilled down data! Like! Even though NYC is the most expensive city to get a hotel room, Boston is the most expensive city for Airbnb! But San Francisco is the most popular! And the most expensive neighborhood in NYC for Airbnb is Tribeca! More here, godspeed.
