Communities throughout New England have been attempting to regulate short-term rentals since sites like Airbnb took off in the 2010s.

自2010年代以来，随着Airbnb等平台的兴起，新英格兰各地的社区一直在试图规范短期租赁。

In New Hampshire, where the rental vacancy rate has dropped below 1 percent, housing advocates fear unchecked short-term rentals will put further pressure on an already strained market.

在新罕布什尔州，该州的租房空置率已降至1%以下，住房倡导者担心不受控制的短期租赁将进一步加剧本已紧张的住房市场。

The state Legislature recently voted against a bill that would've made it illegal for towns to create legislation restricting short-term rentals.

该州立法机构最近投票否决了一项法案，该法案原本将禁止城镇制定限制短期租赁的法规。

However, short-term rentals also provide housing for tourists, pointed out Ryan Castle, CEO of a local association of realtors.

然而，当地房地产协会的首席执行官瑞安·卡斯特指出，短期租赁也为游客提供了住房。

Short-term rentals themselves are not the crux of the issue, said Keren Horn, an expert on affordable housing policy.

短期租赁本身并不是问题的关键，负担得起住房政策专家凯伦·霍恩表示。
