Best Places to Invest in Airbnb Worldwide (2026): Top STR Markets
AirROI's 2026 dataset tracks 100,000+ short-term rental markets across 190+ countries, sourced from 20,000,000+ active listings. Globally, the average Airbnb host earns $1,276/month at a nightly rate of $171 and 34.2% occupancy. The rankings apply to short-term rentals across platforms — Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com — not just one marketplace. Whether you are underwriting a purchase, modeling rental arbitrage economics, or using an Airbnb calculator to project cash-on-cash returns, these market-level benchmarks are the starting point.
Below, we rank the top 100 Airbnb markets worldwide across four dimensions — market depth (active listings), revenue, nightly rate (ADR), and occupancy — each sorted independently so you can evaluate markets through the lens that matters most to your strategy. To avoid thin-market outliers, the rankings only include markets with more than 100 active listings. Every market links to a full city report covering 25+ metrics with monthly time-series data, percentile distributions, guest demographics, and regulation analysis.

How to Choose an Airbnb Investment Market
The best Airbnb market for a given investor depends on capital, risk tolerance, operating model, and income goals. The four ranking dimensions on this page — market depth, revenue, ADR, and occupancy — serve different investor profiles.
If you prioritize predictable cash flow, start with the occupancy rankings. Markets where occupancy exceeds 55% offer consistent bookings and lower vacancy risk. High-occupancy markets may not have the highest nightly rates, but their revenue stability makes them better suited for mortgage-backed investments where monthly debt coverage matters more than peak earnings.
If you're targeting maximum income per property, use the revenue rankings. Revenue captures the combined effect of nightly rate and occupancy. The highest-revenue Airbnb markets tend to be destination cities where travelers stay longer and pay a premium for entire-home listings.
If you're evaluating luxury or premium positioning, the ADR rankings show where guests are willing to pay top dollar per night. High-ADR markets reward property upgrades, professional photography, and amenity investments — but a high nightly rate with low occupancy may generate less income than a moderately priced listing that stays booked consistently.
If you want the deepest market data, the active listings rankings identify cities with the largest short-term rental supply. More listings mean more comparable properties for pricing, more data points for revenue projections, and typically a more liquid resale market.
In all cases, check the regulation column before committing capital. Across the 14,076+ markets tracked globally, 10528 have low regulation, 0 have medium, and 3205 have high. A profitable market with strict regulation may require permits, annual caps on rental days, or costly compliance steps that erode returns.

Frequently Asked Questions About Airbnb Data
Common questions about short-term rental market data, how it works, and how to use it.
What is Airbnb market data?
Airbnb market data is performance analytics for short-term rental properties — including average daily rates (ADR), occupancy rates, annual revenue, RevPAR, seasonality patterns, property type distributions, guest demographics, and regulation levels. AirROI's 2026 dataset tracks these metrics across 190+ countries, sourced from 20,000,000+ active listings.
What metrics are included in each city report?
Each AirROI city report covers 25+ metrics grouped into five categories: financials (ADR, occupancy, revenue, RevPAR with percentile breakdowns), seasonality (monthly charts, peak/low season identification, booking lead time), supply (property types, room capacity, amenities, revenue-impact amenities), guest patterns (demographics, ratings, length of stay, cancellation policies, cleaning fees), and competitive landscape (top listings, top hosts, Superhost share, management companies, nearby markets, regulation level).
How do I find Airbnb data for a specific city?
Browse by country and state below, or navigate directly to any of AirROI's 30,000+ city reports. Each report includes ADR, occupancy rate, revenue, RevPAR, seasonality, property distributions, guest demographics, and regulation data — all free to access with no account required.
How much do Airbnb hosts make on average?
Average Airbnb host earnings vary significantly by city. Top-performing markets exceed $3,000–$5,000/month in average revenue, while smaller markets may average $1,000–$2,000/month. Revenue depends on location, property type, seasonality, and pricing strategy. AirROI's city reports break down average revenue, ADR, occupancy, and RevPAR percentiles for each market so you can benchmark against realistic local figures.
What is a good Airbnb occupancy rate?
According to AirROI data, occupancy rates above 50% are generally considered strong for short-term rentals, indicating consistent booking demand. Markets above 70% are exceptionally high-demand. However, the ideal occupancy rate depends on pricing strategy — some hosts maximize revenue by targeting lower occupancy at higher nightly rates rather than optimizing for booking volume.
What is RevPAR and why does it matter for Airbnb?
RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Rental night) combines nightly rate and occupancy into a single efficiency metric. It answers "how much revenue does each available night actually generate?" — making it a better benchmark than ADR alone, since a high nightly rate means little if the property sits empty. AirROI reports RevPAR at the market level with 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentile breakdowns.
What are the best cities for Airbnb investment?
The best Airbnb investment markets combine high occupancy (55%+), strong RevPAR, manageable regulation, and revenue growth. AirROI ranks markets by these metrics across every tracked country and state. Browse the top 100 markets by revenue, ADR, and occupancy in the tables below, or search for a specific city to see its full 2026 performance breakdown.
How do I compare Airbnb markets for investment?
Start by comparing four key metrics: RevPAR (overall efficiency), occupancy rate (demand stability), ADR (pricing power), and regulation level (compliance risk). Each AirROI city report includes a nearby markets comparison table. For programmatic analysis, the AirROI API provides access to all metrics across all tracked markets.
How often is AirROI market data updated?
AirROI refreshes market data on a rolling basis. The current dataset reflects a trailing twelve-month window, last updated 2026-04-12. Metrics like ADR, occupancy, and revenue are recalculated with each data refresh to reflect the most recent booking activity.
How accurate is this short-term rental data?
AirROI achieves 95%+ accuracy across core metrics by processing booking data, pricing signals, and availability calendars from 20,000,000+ properties globally. Cities with hundreds or thousands of active listings produce statistically robust averages, while smaller markets may show higher variance. All data is sourced directly from platform activity, not surveys or estimates. For a detailed breakdown of our validation methodology, see AirROI's data accuracy report.

The analytics pipeline aggregates listing-level data monthly — revenue, occupancy, nightly rates, RevPAR, guest demographics, booking patterns, and competitive supply — so investors and operators can benchmark any market against its own history and against neighboring destinations.
Real estate investors, property managers, financial institutions, hospitality consultants, and academic researchers rely on AirROI data to underwrite acquisitions, optimize pricing, model macro trends, and conduct peer-reviewed research.
