What stands out in Newark?
Newark's largest departure from the 34-region median is its listing mix: entire homes are 50.7% of its 1,908 listings, the lowest share of the 34 regions, so close to half of Newark's listings are rooms rather than whole homes. Among its entire homes, 3-bedroom homes are the largest group at 30.7%.
- Newark's bookable entire homes fell from 1,013 in the June snapshot to 910 in September (-10.2%), against a 34-region median change of -2.3%.
- Its studios had 91.1% of November nights still open to book when Inside Airbnb collected Newark on 28-29 September 2026.
- Monthly stays are uncommon: 5.0% of Newark's bookable homes ask for 30 nights or more (34-region median 15.7%).
What is the listed nightly price of an Airbnb in Newark?
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 $244 a night; the middle half of quotes ran from $198 to $324, and the top tenth started at $483. By size, the median runs from $184 for studios to $495 for homes with 4 or more bedrooms. 3-bedroom homes are the largest group, 30.7% of its 910 bookable homes, and 25.0% of its near-term quotes carried a host discount.
| Bedrooms (of 910 homes) | Bookable homes | Share of homes | Homes with a near-term quote | Quotes with a discount | 25th percentile | Median | 75th percentile | 90th percentile |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 37 | 4.1% | 32 | 9.4% | $144 | $184 | $218 | $296 |

How many nights are still open to book in Newark?
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 28-29 September 2026, UpRev counts 60.6% of October nights at its bookable homes still open to book, 78.4% of November nights and 73.6% 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, studios had the most nights open (89.4%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the fewest (69.4%).
| Bedrooms (of 910 homes) | October nights open | November nights open | December nights open |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 74.6% | 91.1% | 89.4% |
| 1 | 54.2% | 73.3% | 73.8% |
| 2 | 60.9% | 79.9% | 75.6% |
| 3 | 62.6% | 79.7% | 70.9% |

What is the estimated occupancy of an Airbnb in Newark?
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 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, gives its bookable homes an estimated occupancy of 29.2% on average over the 89 nights from 1 July to 27 September 2026; the median home sat at 27.0%, 12.9% of homes reached the model's 70% cap, and because reviews follow check-out the figure reads low. By size, 2-bedroom homes had the highest estimated occupancy (33.4%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the lowest (19.1%).
| Bedrooms (of 910 homes) | Bookable homes | Reviews in the window | Estimated occupancy, mean | Estimated occupancy, median | Homes at the 70% cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 37 | 191 | 30.8% | 27.0% | 13.5% |
| 1 | 225 | 934 | 29.1% | 27.0% | 10.2% |
| 2 | 262 | 1,376 | 33.4% | 33.7% | 18.7% |
| 3 | 279 | 1,279 | 29.1% | 27.0% | 11.8% |
| 4+ | 105 | 320 | 19.1% | 6.7% | 6.7% |
| All | 910 | 4,100 | 29.2% | 27.0% | 12.9% |

Inside Airbnb's snapshot holds 1,908 listings, 50.7% of them entire homes, and UpRev counts 910 of those as bookable. 67.1% of these bookable homes are run by hosts with two or more listings in the region; the median minimum stay is 2 nights, 5.0% ask for a minimum stay of 30 nights or more, and 77.6% were reviewed in the last 12 months.

How does Newark compare with the 34 short-term rental (STR) markets in the data?
UpRev's benchmark sets the region's 910 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 Newark since the snapshot before?
Between Inside Airbnb's snapshots of 30 June 2026 and 28 September 2026, UpRev counts bookable entire homes going from 1,013 to 910 (-10.2%) and the median near-term quoted price from $297 to $244 (-$53, -17.8%); the June quotes were for stays checking in during June and July, 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 (1,013 homes) | September snapshot (910 homes) | Change | Change, relative |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median near-term quoted nightly price (660 quotes in September) | $297 | $244 | -$53 | -17.8% |
| Bookable entire homes | 1,013 | 910 | -103 | -10.2% |
| Run by hosts with 2+ listings | 68.7% | 67.1% | -1.6 pts | - |
| Median minimum stay (nights, 910 homes in September) | 2 | 2 | 0 | - |
| Minimum stay of 30 nights or more | 3.8% | 5.0% | 1.2 pts | - |
| Estimated occupancy, mean | 23.1% | 29.2% | 6.1 pts | - |

How does UpRev count Newark?
Bookable entire homes, 910 of them, from Inside Airbnb's snapshot of 28 September 2026, collected 28-29 September 2026. Estimated occupancy uses the 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, with which the model reproduces Inside Airbnb's own per-listing estimate on 1,908 of 1,908 listings in this snapshot and 2,019 of 2,019 in its June snapshot of 30 June 2026; every bedroom class has the 30 near-term quotes a price percentile needs, of 660 in all. How we count: see the method page.
