Does your state limit how cities can restrict Airbnb, VRBO, and other short-term rentals? State STR preemption laws prevent local governments from imposing bans or restrictions that go beyond the state floor. Scroll the table or search your state to see the verified status for all 51 U.S. jurisdictions.
Each row shows the verification status for that state’s short-term rental preemption law. Verified rows include the authoritative citation and the date we last confirmed it. Unconfirmed rows indicate a candidate provision was found but applicability could not be definitively established. Source unreachable rows reflect an access limitation at verification time — not a finding that no law exists. Consult the state legislature website directly for the most current information.
