We stayed in a villa for our latest holiday, so I couldn't answer. Surely
more people must stay in villas, apartments, other s/c accommodation than
sleeping in their cars or in the open air???

If you consider the price of a villa I doubt it.... And there are certainly
few people sleeping in a villa in "rec.travel.budget.backpack".

but 'villa' is just a specific form of self catering in a single house.
Lets make it a bit cheaper. There must be lots of people staying
in 'gites' each year.
