Where can I find information about person to bedroom ratio for rentals?

How many people can lawfully share a bedroom for each state? Does anyone know any website with this information?Where can I find information about person to bedroom ratio for rentals?It varies by circumstances. General rule of thumb is 2 per room. But babies under a year old do not count. Also it can be 1 per room if they are children of the opposite gender. Also, 2 children of the same gender can not share a room if there is more then 5 years age differance.



Although most states are the same you can contact your local housing authority to determine the rules for your state and city.



An example of a city one is that in my city 3 unrelated women can not reside in the same home, legally speaking that makes it a "brothel". Stupid, but true. Your city may have some quirkly housing laws too.Where can I find information about person to bedroom ratio for rentals?
That would be found under local ordinances. I'm in Athens, Ga and there can only be 3 unrelated persons in one building.Where can I find information about person to bedroom ratio for rentals?found lots of grea things on www.search-icon.com

good luck.

I think it's more of a management policy. For example, the complex I live in now says you can't have more than 2 people in a 1 bedroom apartment, 4 people in a 2 bedroom apartment, and 6 people in a 3 bedroom apartment.



The place I moved away from a couple of months ago was rumored to be a haven for illegal Mexican immigrants, and a one bedroom apartment was found to have 10 people crammed into it.Where can I find information about person to bedroom ratio for rentals?I find this site helpful for general occupency regulations. It's a PDF form called "Every Landlords Legal Guide"

I always thought the general rule of thumb was 2 persons per bedroom. But there are exclusions and exceptions. There are even regulations requiring you to allow certain high occupency situations! I looked and looked but couldn't find any website that breaks the rules down per state or county. But, if you go to a search engine and type in:



"%26lt;insert state or county%26gt; tenant occupancy laws" you should be able to find region specific information.
