How do I change my listing’s neighbourhood?
A listing is automatically assigned to a neighbourhood based on its address and this neighbourhood can’t be edited. The best way to make sure your listing’s neighbourhood is correct is to make sure your address is as accurate as possible.
How boundaries are determined
Neighbourhood boundaries are based on research with locals and city experts. A cartographer helps make sure these boundaries are accurate and up-to-date, and we’re always looking for ways to improve how we use boundaries. Since neighbourhoods evolve over time, we are continuously updating our maps to increase their accuracy. If your listing’s neighbourhood is a subset of a larger neighbourhood, or if two neighbourhoods overlap, your listing may show in search results for both neighbourhoods.
How “neighbourhood types” are defined
On the mobile app, guests have the ability to filter their search by neighbourhood type (for example, “quiet” or “hip”). These descriptions allow guests to see the most relevant neighbourhoods that best fit their trip, and were chosen based on research on the most common words guests use to describe a neighbourhood they want to stay in.
At this time, guests are asked in the review after checkout to choose which neighbourhood types best fit their listing. These guest selections are combined for every listing in a neighbourhood, and the most frequently selected descriptions by guests are used to represent an important aspect of that neighbourhood. These neighbourhood types may change over time as guests and hosts provide more feedback.
Leave feedback about neighbourhoods
If you feel your listed neighbourhood is wrong or information regarding a neighbourhood is incorrect, you can provide us direct feedback. While we can’t respond to everything, we encourage you to share your knowledge and opinions because the Neighbourhoods team uses feedback to improve our platform.
My address is wrong
If the address of your listing is wrong, the neighbourhood for your home may be incorrect as well. To change the address before your first booking, you can edit your listing. If you’ve already booked a reservation, you’ll need to contact us to change your address.
No neighbourhood showing for my listing
While we’ve recently updated neighbourhood information for popular travel destinations worldwide, not all locations have neighbourhoods on Airbnb. If no neighbourhoods are available, the search results won’t display a neighbourhood filter for that location.
Describe your neighbourhood for guests
Many travellers, instead of searching by neighbourhood, use listing pages to learn about what location is right for their trip. Write a robust description of your listing so guests know your opinion of the surrounding neighbourhood when looking at your listing page.
