They do, but not for that reason. What makes you entitled to disturb neighbors after 10pm? Go to a nightclub if you want to party.

Once criminals figure out which properties are short term rentals, the tourists staying at them who are unfamiliar with their environment & have their guard down because they’re on vacation become easy targets for criminals. STRs attract crime to residential neighborhoods.
