The rudest students are consistently the ones staying at the top end hotels not short term rentals in my 20 year experience.
Oh, I'm not trying to make any kind of link between jerkiness toward others and what kind of lodging people choose, or even how much money they make. I think jerks and narcissists come in all varieties*. I was responding to Wendy's "what else can we do to help locals" question. And the link between short term rentals and affordability is well documented (and we've discussed it on other threads so I won't rehash anything).
*Maybe the super rich have more jerks in their ranks, I don't know. Though I personally doubt it. They probably just have more opportunity to be jerks to others. A lower income jerk or worse just stays home and abuses his family members and animals or whatnot.
