According to their own blog, “the Airbnb community now spans 191countries and 34,000 cities around the world”. That’s quite some reach. Today they released a summer report that released some data that shows just how quickly that community has grown:

“Five years ago, in the summer of 2010, roughly 47,000 people stayed with Airbnb hosts. This summer, nearly 17 million total guests stayed with Airbnb hosts around the world. That means that in the last five years, summer travel on Airbnb has grown 353 times over.”
