There currently is not a significant number of hosts operating within the City, however, we expect that number to increase exponentially as the demand for lodging posed by the influx of 10,000 Foxconn construction workers prompts many City property owners to begin offering an expanding supply of rooms to meet the growing demand. | Referred | Pass |
