I'm definitely sympathetic to this argument, AirBnb ruined housing markets. I'm curious how much of the demand actually comes from "digital nomads", though.

- xbar 4y agoIt is a good thing to be curious about. We don't have good numbers and it really is only a question of numbers. Any community can tolerate a certain amount of tourism or immigration. My take is that most communities are small and have never had to deal with much growth. It would not surprise me if their little boats are getting swamped.
- miguelazo 4y agoFair point. I would estimate digital nomads are less than 10% of the total market. I do suspect they have an outsize effect, especially the ones who are “influencers”.
