How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Cambridge?
Gross bookings per Cambridge listing averaged $13,263 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Ohio average: $27,235), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Cambridge listing brings in $2,710 in December, its best month, and $1,500 in April, its slowest. January runs within 5% of April, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 31% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
Across Cambridge's 26 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $5,080+ a month, about 3.4 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,260 or more, roughly $1,800 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about $1,500 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $498 or less, about a third of the median.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.
December earns about 1.8 times what April does

Cambridge Airbnb Data by Month
Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.
June 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in November 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, December is usually the strongest month.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Cambridge Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Cambridge Airbnb took in $13,263 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $760 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 $1,670 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $780 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $820 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $650 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.

How Cambridge's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Cambridge listings are booked on 52% or more of their nights, against 23% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $145 adds about $1,430 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $170 a night or more, against a median of $145. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about $1,250 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about $2,710, against $1,500 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Cambridge listings average 4.84 stars, and 46% 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 $2,410 a month, against $1,110 for the average one.
