How to cite

Name both the barometer and the underlying data. Each page shows a citation for its own figures, with the snapshot dates; the general form is:

In a chart or a table, a shorter line is enough: Source: STR Barometer, Inside Airbnb data (CC BY 4.0). Online, please link to the page the figure comes from.

Terms of reuse

• The underlying data is published by Inside Airbnb under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0), which requires attribution to Inside Airbnb.
• STR Barometer's own indicators, tables and charts may be reused, quoted, translated and republished, in print or online, for any purpose, on the same terms: credit STR Barometer and Inside Airbnb, and do not present an altered chart as the original.
• No permission request is needed. If you reuse a chart in a different language or layout, the source line must stay.

Wording that keeps the figures accurate

• Say asking price per night, not "average price paid".
• Say estimated nights booked or estimated occupancy, not "occupancy rate".
• Say active entire-home listings, not "homes" or "flats rented to tourists".
• Say gross revenue before costs, never "income" or "profit".
• Quote London in pounds and the other cities in euros; compare across currencies only through nights and shares.
• Give the snapshot date when you quote a figure; avoid "now" or "this year".

Charts

10 charts are available as SVG files in English, French and Dutch, each with a title, its unit and its source line built in. They are on the charts page, with previews and the data behind each one.
