Airbnb rentals and neighborhood hostility: my experience.

My family was in town for my wedding this past weekend so I rented a 6 bedroom house in Austin. Within hours of arriving, my mom started receiving threats from neighbors.

"Fuck off, leave our neighborhood in peace"

"Our children aren't safe since a new group of strangers shows up every weekend"

"If you make so much as a peep of noise we hear after 10pm, we are calling the sherrif"

etc...

My mom has thick skin, so this isn't a cry for attention or sympathy for her sake. In retrospect, I was sympathetic with the neighbors -- they had three small girls under the age of 10 and were afraid to let them play outside on the weekend with a house next door perpetually filled with strangers.

My question is if there is anything neighbors/neighborhoods can do to prevent a home owner from renting their house out 4 days a week? If not, should there be?
