No I get it is not the same but the problems are similar. Too many tourist in a city with too few houses and apartments that are now being used as bnbs.

Yes indeed. I think in Europe the worst is probably Lisbon, that has basically been overrun by foreigners, but that's a common phenomenon in all major cities.

I did know about Lisbon. I remember hearing the Swiss canton of Vaud had around 60% of it's population was foreigners. Which resulted in the local Swiss no longer being able to afford any form of housing anymore.
