San Luis Obispo County Report on Short-term Vacation Rental

STR and Housing Affordability

The County could not find clear and empirical data that indicates that short-term rentals (STRs) have a substantial impact on the availability of long-term, rental housing options in the unincorporated Mountain and East Desert communities.

STRs have a very small impact on the state’s housing inventory and cannot be considered a meaningful driver of California’s housing shortage.
