  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,060 or less, about 58% of the median.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Town of Colton Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Town of Colton Airbnb took in $32,325 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,680 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about $2,700 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $3,560 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,980 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,440 a month.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any HOA or condo fees.

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Town of Colton listings are booked on 56% or more of their nights, against 36% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $290 adds about $2,880 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $405 a night or more, against a median of $290.

  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $8,540, against $1,880 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Town of Colton listings average 4.93 stars, and 77% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about $4,290 a month, against $2,690 for the average one.
