Neighbors having issue with renting rooms-Need advise

I am in Louisiana for reference. I had been renting 2 rooms on my house for several years-no problems with any neighbor at any.

I have since moved out (about a week ago) to buy another home!!!


I currently have 2 renters there and was advertising for a 3rd renter.

One tenant has been there almost 2 years and the other is a traveling nurse that will stay 13 weeks.

Tenant 1 is on a month to month lease. 

Tenant 2 signed lease for 13 weeks. 

One of my neighbor across the street posted on Nextdoor that he intend to see what can be done; he is taking about hiring a attorney to enforce the subdivision restrictions-we do not have a homeowners association in the subdivisions.

Here is what he stated-

“A rooming or boarding house is a commercial operation being run in a residential area”.

Is going through Air B and B a viable option?  What are the pros and con's?

Any Insight or suggestions is welcome!
