[RP TownTalk] multiple families/apartments

[Sue Collins]

On the same subject, what is the maximum number of people allowed in, for instance, a 1 bedroom apartment?  Just curious...

I've noticed this too Nancy.  This is going on all over town.
 
Based on my understanding, the maximum number of unrelated individuals allowable by law is five per household.  I had to abide by this law when I had rental property in Hyattsvile.
