abstract: As a new actor in the realm of tourism accommodation, Airbnb has sparked widespread debates on gentrification and nuisance. The main problem is that these debates are mostly in the hands of the public and the media, which denies the creation of effective policy supported by empirical evidence. This dissertation aims to explore the extent to which gentrification and Airbnb intersect to form a policy recommendation. A multiple linear regression showed a small correlation between Airbnb presence and gentrification in Milanese neighbourhoods. This implies a higher Airbnb presence is more likely in gentrified neighbourhoods, potentially aggrevating gentrifying processes further. It is concluded that Airbnb follows after gentrification, which forces policies to focus on an intersectoral approach to gentrification.
