Gastonia Regulations
Gastonia explicitly permits STRs citywide in residential zones with a defined permitting process, annual renewals, and standard state compliance, indicating clear legality and moderate regulatory steps. The absence of caps, manageable operational rules (e.g., occupancy, safety), and a structured but not overly burdensome process (e.g., online portal, reasonable fees) create a friendly investment climate, though compliance requires diligence.
