Generally Investor friendly
Decatur explicitly allows STRs with a straightforward $25 annual license per property, basic safety and tax obligations, and no explicit caps; however, operators must verify zoning, handle hotel/motel tax registration and remittance, and renew annually, making compliance manageable but not minimal.
