Airbnb, a home sharing economy platform, gives users an alternative to traditional hotel accommodation by allowing them to rent accommodation from people who are willing to share their homes. In 2024, the North America region had the largest share of Airbnb's gross booking value, with 37.8 billion U.S. dollars.

This is the complete breakdown of how much revenue Airbnb makes in commission from listings in each region.

The total revenue of Airbnb reached 11.1 billion U.S. dollars in 2024. This was an increase over the previous year's total of 9.92 billion. The decrease in revenue in 2020 can be attributed to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which caused travel disruption across the globe. When breaking down Airbnb revenue by region, North America, where Airbnb was founded, brought in the most revenue in 2024. Where are Airbnb’s biggest markets? Airbnb is a home sharing economy platform that operates in many countries around the world. The company’s biggest market is in North America where Airbnb’s gross booking value amounted to 37.8 billion U.S. dollars. Meanwhile, Latin American travelers stayed more nights with Airbnb on average than those in the Asia Pacific region. How did COVID-19 impact Airbnb? The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the travel and tourism industry worldwide, with many countries initiating stay at home orders or travel bans to prevent the spread of the virus. In addition to a decrease in revenue in 2020, the company also experienced a reduction in the number of nights and experiences booked with Airbnb. Bookings fell to under 200 million in 2020 due to these travel restrictions. In 2024, Airbnb reported over 492 million booked nights and experiences, a significant increase over the previous year.

The region with the most nights and experiences booked with Airbnb worldwide in 2024 was Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (or EMEA). That year, the EMEA region reported 201 million bookings. Asia Pacific had the lowest number of bookings at 61 million. The Asia Pacific region also had the lowest average number of nights per Airbnb booking in 2024.

• What can we learn about different hosts and areas?
• What can we learn from predictions? (ex: locations, prices, reviews, etc)
• Which hosts are the busiest and why?
• Is there any noticeable difference of traffic among different areas and what could be the reason for it?

Inside Airbnb is an independent, non-commercial set of tools and data that allows you to explore how Airbnb is really being used in cities around the world.

By analyzing publicly available information about a city's Airbnb's listings, Inside Airbnb provides filters and key metrics so you can see how Airbnb is being used to compete with the residential housing market.

With Inside Airbnb, you can ask fundamental questions about Airbnb in any neighbourhood, or across the city as a whole. Questions such as:

• "How many listings are in my neighbourhood and where are they?"
• "How many houses and apartments are being rented out frequently to tourists and not to long-term residents?"
• "How much are hosts making from renting to tourists (compare that to long-term rentals)?"
• "Which hosts are running a business with multiple listings and where they?"

The tools are presented simply, and can also be used to answer more complicated questions, such as:

• "Show me all the highly available listings in Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn, New York City, which are for the 'entire home or apartment' that have a review in the last 6 months AND booked frequently AND where the host has other listings."

These questions (and the answers) get to the core of the debate for many cities around the world, with Airbnb claiming that their hosts only occasionally rent the homes in which they live.

In addition, many city or state legislation or ordinances that address residential housing, short term or vacation rentals, and zoning usually make reference to allowed use, including:

• how many nights a dwelling is rented per year
• minimum nights stay
• whether the host is present
• how many rooms are being rented in a building
• the number of occupants allowed in a rental
• whether the listing is licensed

The Inside Airbnb tool or data can be used to answer some of these questions.

How to use the dataset

The following guide will help you get started in your journey to gain insights from this data set.

First, specify the fields that you want to focus on. In order to do this, make sure you take into consideration the columns available within this dataset. By doing so, not only are you able to hone in on specific aspects of Airbnb accommodation and reviews (i.e neighborhood groups, room types or even pricing), but also identify themes or common trends among listings which could prove useful when formulating hypotheses.

Once you have identified which fields will be useful for analysis, it is important that they are converted into appropriate data types if they need any sort of conversion at all (i.e converting strings to integers). Moreover, make sure there are no inconsistencies across your features when exploring the entries in those columns; take care of them before any substantial analysis is done.

You are now ready for some exploratory analysis! Start by creating visualizations such as bar graphs or box plots in order to get an overview of particular aspects related to listings (i.e distribution of prices around a neighbourhood group) - these can be very useful indicators! Then try out correlations between different exponential variable datasets such as availability_365 versus minimum_nightsand explore how they fluctuate with changes in pricing over time - examining how these relationships relate over different locations can yield interesting results like unexpected concentration points which demand research! Another field worth exploring would be reviews associated with each listing by digging down into their components like ratings breakdowns under different criteria such as security/price value ratio etc.. All these evaluations should give an excellent outline on what potential customers might look out for while browsing through options online so as entrepreneurs we can hover upon those trends specially mentioning needs fulfilled during our advertisement campains.... Lastly examine publicly available information about each host such as number_of_reviews or calculated_listings count variation over time , with ability provided here we have ample opportunities predicting customer opinion about newly created businesses offering same services...so many things one could dive deep !

Overall , after gaining ample amount insights taking about current market scenario it’s best suggested procuring feedback from active host & using it devise plans bringing mutual mutually beneficial solutions making both hosts & guests happy . This is where creativity play huge role designing perks forming long lasting trust inducing relationship between service providers &
