What stands out in New York City?
New York City's largest departure from the 34-region median is recent reviews: 47.6% of its bookable entire homes were reviewed in the last 12 months, the lowest share of the 34 regions, against a median of 79.2%. New York City's median minimum stay is 30 nights, against 2 for the median region.
- Only 893 of New York City's 10,111 bookable entire homes had a near-term quote, so its price figures describe a small slice of the market.
- Inside Airbnb sets a 6.4-night average stay for New York City; with it, the estimated occupancy since 1 July was 18.8%, against a 34-region median of 29.3%.
- New York City's bookable entire homes went from 11,537 in the June snapshot to 10,111 in September (-12.4%).
What is the listed nightly price of an Airbnb in New York City?
The listed nightly price is the asking price of a near-term stay at a bookable entire home, net of host discounts and before taxes and fees: what a guest was quoted, not what a guest paid.
UpRev's count puts the median near-term quoted price of a bookable entire home at $475 a night; the middle half of quotes ran from $335 to $716, and the top tenth started at $1,054. By size, the median runs from $379 for studios to $992 for homes with 4 or more bedrooms. 1-bedroom homes are the largest group, 45.7% of its 10,111 bookable homes, and 17.2% of its near-term quotes carried a host discount.

How many nights are still open to book in New York City?
Open nights are the calendar nights a host still offers to book, as Inside Airbnb collected them. A night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the calendar does not say which, so a low share open is not proof of demand on its own.
As Inside Airbnb collected it on 14-15 September 2026, UpRev counts 46.5% of October nights at its bookable homes still open to book, 65.6% of November nights and 71.6% of December nights; a night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the file does not say which. For December, 1-bedroom homes had the most nights open (72.9%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the fewest (67.9%).
| Bedrooms (of 10,111 homes) | October nights open | November nights open | December nights open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 37.2% | 63.2% | 69.8% |
| 1 | 48.1% | 66.7% | 72.9% |
| 2 | 46.6% | 64.3% | 70.6% |
| 3 | 51.4% | 67.3% | 71.2% |
| 4+ | 50.6% | 63.7% | 67.9% |

What is the estimated occupancy of an Airbnb in New York City?
Estimated occupancy is Inside Airbnb's own review-based model, run by UpRev with each region's average stay. It is an estimate built from reviews, not a count of bookings, and it reads low because a review follows check-out.
Inside Airbnb's review-based model, run by UpRev with the 6.4-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, gives its bookable homes an estimated occupancy of 18.8% on average over the 75 nights from 1 July to 13 September 2026; at least half of its homes had no review in the window, so the median home sits at 0.0%, 24.1% of homes reached the model's 70% cap, and because reviews follow check-out the figure reads low. By size, studios had the highest estimated occupancy (21.2%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the lowest (16.8%).
| Bedrooms (of 10,111 homes) | Bookable homes | Reviews in the window | Estimated occupancy, mean | Estimated occupancy, median | Homes at the 70% cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 1,542 | 2,630 | 21.2% | 0.0% | 27.4% |
| 1 | 4,625 | 3,895 | 18.3% | 0.0% | 23.5% |
| 2 | 2,556 | 2,394 | 18.2% | 0.0% | 23.6% |
| 3 | 984 | 1,259 | 20.0% | 0.0% | 25.3% |

How does New York City compare with the 34 short-term rental (STR) markets in the data?
UpRev's benchmark sets the region's 10,111 bookable homes beside the median of the 34 US regions Inside Airbnb covers, each read from its own snapshot of 14-30 September 2026; the regions' calendars were read on different days, so the shares of nights open compare calendars at different distances from each month.

What changed in New York City since the snapshot before?
Between Inside Airbnb's snapshots of 14 June 2026 and 14 September 2026, UpRev counts bookable entire homes going from 11,537 to 10,111 (-12.4%) and the median near-term quoted price from $404 to $475 ($71, 17.6%); the June quotes were for stays checking in during June, so the price change crosses seasons: two snapshots, not a trend; the June file leaves most studios without a bedroom count, so June has no studio figure.
| Measure | June snapshot (11,537 homes) | September snapshot (10,111 homes) | Change | Change, relative |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median near-term quoted nightly price (893 quotes in September) | $404 | $475 | $71 | 17.6% |
| Bookable entire homes | 11,537 | 10,111 | -1,426 | -12.4% |
