I was a resident, I payed taxes and everything. This local versus tourists stuff is just xenopfobia.
Why you don't blame city hall that refuses to build new housing, and d milks tourism for everything at expenses of locals?

How many apartments are on Airbnb? 10%? And probably only in centre.
And some people like me actually stay in airbnbs long term. It is easy to negotiate reasonable price outside of tourist season. Normal landlord is way too expensive and does not bother with basic maintenance.
It is xenophobia, because many cities are blaming their problems on 'tourists'. But those are often foreign workers and students.
