Where tourism is, economic activity thrives.
Local population grows.
=> there's a shortage of housing, especially in city center, where people want to live, and want to go.
=> there's a competition to own the land/housing between: people who want to live there, and people who want to rent it to tourists (lower investment than if you lived there and high+frequent demand).
=> there's also a shortage of hotels AND a temporary shortage of convenience (precisely where AirBnB thrives with VC money, in order to break and change the market - that's very intentional).
