I would assume this discussion is centered on coastal American cities, where Airbnbs routinely cost well over your monthly cost per night, plus cleaning fees etc. I don’t know where you are or what average rental price is in your area, but you won’t find any American units anywhere near that price.

My rental (traditional lease) cost is ~10x yours and I am considered to have a screaming good deal.

I'm in Yucatan, Mexico.

Did you click the link of this submission? It's about Dublin, Ireland. That said you're right I have never checked out airbnb prices in the coastal US and I'd assume they are much more expensive there
