Re: maximum occupancy

The question asked isn't a simple one since many things may control. No "main" law says. Local city or municipal limitations may address how many unrelated people may reside in a home. In addition, if you are receiving any financial assistance from an organization they may limit the number of people. A third, and very common one is that the apartment community may have a policy that they allow no more than 2 people per room, no matter what the age.
