The Airbnb host community in Ann Arbor had 6,440 guest arrivals and earned $1.2 million in supplemental income during Michigan home football weekends, according to an announcement by Airbnb. 

The weekend where Wolverines played Michigan State University marked the largest surge of travelers to Ann Arbor in the history of Airbnb's platform.

670 Ann Arbor residents share their homes to guests via Airbnb.

With hotels in the area reaching peak capacity during game weekends, the growth of home sharing has allowed Ann Arbor to host thousands of extra visitors.
