A clearer view of permits available in Palm Springs

The City publishes detailed vacation-rental figures for 52 recognized neighborhoods plus additional reporting areas. Sandvue turns those releases into monthly snapshots and annual reviews: which neighborhoods remain comfortably below the 20% cap, which are approaching it, where a permit waitlist is in effect, and how those conditions change over time.

The goal is not to replace the City’s determination. It is to make the public information easier to explore, compare, and use as a starting point for property research.

For each calendar month in the archive, Sandvue uses the latest City release we recovered. Some historical releases omit fields, which remain unavailable. Missing months remain visible as gaps; values are never interpolated or carried forward.

For a longer perspective, explore the historical research, which keeps citywide registrant and certificate totals separate from older neighborhood counts. Different source definitions are not combined into a single trend.

What each monthly report includes

  • A snapshot-aware map and searchable neighborhood table, with additional reporting areas clearly labeled
  • Estimated permits available alongside City-published permit waitlists
  • MoM and YTD density changes when comparable snapshots are loaded
  • A preserved snapshot for future historical comparisons
