In Los Angeles, short-term rentals (STRs) are regulated under the Home-Sharing Ordinance, which requires that these rentals be hosted in the owner's primary residence, where they may be rented for a maximum of 120 days annually. The city caters primarily to tourists, with significant demand in urban areas, particularly near attractions like Hollywood and Venice Beach. Apartments tend to thrive in the STR market, while single-family homes are increasingly restricted. Rentals are strictly limited to ensure local housing availability, and details regarding permits and compliance are overseen by the Los Angeles Department of City Planning. Additionally, Los Angeles County imposes its own regulations on STRs, limiting non-hosted rentals in unincorporated areas to 90 days per year.
