Anchor

A person who is not quite a tourist, but not a local. Often used to describe a person who owns property in a vacation area and lives there for a season.

They are aware of local customs and frequently curse those damn out-of-towners.

This is common in beach-side towns in the summer

Nicole only lives here for the summer- she's an anchor.

Nicole: damn tourists don't know where they're goin! GET OFF THE ROAD
