By law, six people can live in a three-bedroom house in Florida. This number can be more or less depending on the actual living space.
In 1996, the U.S. Congress approved a two-person-per-bedroom law as a housing occupancy standard, but this law is flexible. The number of people who can occupy a bedroom depends on the property's actual layout and living space size. More people are allowed for a large living space and less people for a small living space. The number of people refers to adults and not young children. The Fair Housing Act makes it clear that there should not be any discrimination against families with children.
