ABSTRACT This article analyses the spatiality of the proliferation of short-term rentals in Spain. It was based on geolocalised data for all the Airbnb listings in the country. A multiscale analysis enabled us to identify the socio-economic, tourism market and housing stock variables that have had the greatest influence on the proliferation of short-term rental offers. The results obtained confirmed a pattern of concentration that validates our central hypothesis: the uneven distribution of Airbnb listings has a strong spatial correlation with the potential for generating new profits in the housing market. At national level, the urban areas with the highest concentration of Airbnb listings are those with the highest tourist demand. These are the largest cities, coastal tourist regions and archipelagos. At the city level, clusters of Airbnb concentrations are located in central areas where short-term rentals tend to be more expensive. They are also located in working-class neighbourhoods with lower housing prices with great potential for investors due to their proximity to tourist sites. These findings provide new evidence of how the so-called sharing economy is playing a central role in the intensification of the commodification of housing and how this is correlated with the intensive touristification of urban areas.

了解西班牙短期租赁的空间性：Airbnb 和住房商品化的加剧

摘要 本文分析了西班牙短期租赁激增的空间性。它基于该国所有 Airbnb 房源的地理定位数据。多尺度分析使我们能够确定对短期租赁优惠扩散影响最大的社会经济、旅游市场和住房存量变量。获得的结果证实了一种集中模式，该模式验证了我们的中心假设：Airbnb 房源的分布不均与在住房市场产生新利润的潜力具有很强的空间相关性。在全国范围内，Airbnb房源最集中的城市地区是游客需求最高的地区。这些是最大的城市、沿海旅游区和群岛。在城市层面，Airbnb 的聚集地位于中心地区，短期租金往往更贵。它们也位于房价较低的工人阶级社区，由于靠近旅游景点，因此具有很大的投资者潜力。这些发现提供了新的证据，证明所谓的共享经济如何在住房商品化的加剧中发挥核心作用，以及这与城市地区的密集旅游化有何关联。
