Challenging to Investors
New Kensington has no dedicated STR ordinance, so STRs rely on general zoning and rental rules; without explicit zoning permission in residential areas, investors face legal uncertainty and potential restrictions. Compliance requires state/county hotel tax (11%) and registration, plus fire/safety requirements, but the unclear municipal stance raises enforcement and investment risk.
