Philadelphia is cracking down on Airbnb and Vrbo. Locals are torn over whether it's a good thing.

• Philadelphia locals are divided over a crackdown that could remove 85% of Airbnb and Vrbo listings.
• A former short-term-rental cleaner said the move is long overdue, as bad hosts have multiplied.
• A local Airbnb host said it's unfair and doesn't support it, even if it means less competition. 

Philadelphia locals are divided over the city's crackdown on unlicensed Airbnbs and Vrbos.

The move could eliminate 85% of short-term rentals, or nearly 1,700 pads, according to the city's own estimate.
