(The counties just north and just east of Pittsburgh.)I might argue those counties do predate civilization but then there would be no excuse for Fayette County (locally known as Fayette-nam as in Vietnam) which actually does have sqft records.Or then you get Beaver County that hasn’t done An assessment since 1983 and half the data is just wrong

All of that heightened demand is without the European and South American tourism that has been a big portion of Orlando tourism in the past.

Location seemed conducive to short term rental due to growing tourism.

Another great vacation rental option in SoCal would be Big Bear ... lower price points and much less regulatory risk as the whole economy is driven by tourism and vacation rentals.

Higher education, medicine, farming, ranching, rail, mining, tourism, oil & gas, financial center, tax free shopping for Wyoming residents ;), Billings has it all. 

If the economy is based off of tourism, vacation rentals are the norm, and there is not some huge player in the market that controls the city, owns hotels, and has an incentive to outlaw mom-and-pop vacation rentals (like, say, Anaheim), then your regulatory risk is minimized (but not eliminated entirely).

Then of course coronavirus wiped out tourism this year,  so RV rentals was my backup plan .
