I'm gonna assume all hospitality staff are living in flats with 10 others to split costs?

Oh yeah, the only empty houses are all the AirBnBs (at my weekly rent every night) or lock'n'leaves. Probably 2/3rds of my street is empty most of the time. Rentals can't be had for love or money, we got lucky with ours at the end of covid.

Why are the AirBnBs empty? I figured they would be booked pretty solid.

Just not consistently full - definitely people in them, just not all the time. Only time everything is full is the school holidays...
