McKeesport does not impose a night cap on short-term rentals. No annual rental-day limit is currently enforced; hosts must still collect PA 6% hotel occupancy tax on stays under 30 days.
As of 2026, McKeesport has no ordinance limiting the number of nights a property may be rented as a short-term rental (STR) on platforms such as Airbnb or VRBO. PA has no statewide STR cap either. Hosts are still responsible for collecting and remitting the 6% PA Hotel Occupancy Tax (72 P.S. §7209) on stays under 30 days; Airbnb and VRBO collect and remit this on behalf of hosts as booking agents. Hosts must also comply with McKeesport's general property maintenance, zoning, occupancy, and nuisance ordinances. Given state trends, McKeesport could adopt an STR ordinance in the future; hosts should monitor City Council agendas.
No night-cap violations exist (no cap). Non-payment of PA 6% hotel tax: interest plus penalties up to 25% of tax owed; willful non-filing can result in misdemeanor charges.
