Now they rent their house, pool, ARB&B and their ADU as short term rentals. I'm not sure how they are getting away with it legally as the ADU is not suppose to be rented for anything less than 30 days.
You can't find parking around any of our houses as they advertise plenty of free parking and since we are close to LAX people stay the night before their flights then leave their cars parked for weeks while they travel.
Things have calmed down since the lock down but before COVID the nice house I built to raise my kids in now shares a common property line with a commercial venture and two of the worst people I have ever met.
They have grown 30 foot hedges around the property to give their guest a sense of privacy but the noise sure travels through those.
I will now get off my soap box

Air BB sucks. I hate them. My neighbor used to rent his downstairs out for film shoot and what not. There are always strange people around. Sometimes they would come through our gate and have not a care in the world. Problem is, once they pay out money, they think its a hotel and do as they please. Since their baby, they stopped but trashcans are still out on the street for most of the week.
This place is way too crowded and now with the ADUs or garage conversions, it cost little to bring in addition income. Yep, the impact is huge. Home owners mean well but sometimes, the tenants can be real butt heads. parking is always a huge problem. I am sure you remember parking in LA was never an issue no matter where you went unless its downtown.
