I haven't looked, but my intuition is that the differences are so pronounced that finding data should not be difficult. I would not want my neighbors regularly renting their apartment while they are out of town. There is already a substantial enough difference in decorum and responsibility between owners and renters that condo associations as well as the mortgage industry (as well as FHA) establish maximum renter to owner ratios.

I live in a high rise that also contains a hotel, but with different lobbies and elevators, and that doesn't bother me. I think this is because a hotel has a management staff that maintains common area decorum and holds occupants responsible for their actions during their stay. An apartment rented on airbnb has no similar oversight or responsibility for common facilities.
