Allen caps STR occupancy at two persons per bedroom plus two additional, not to exceed building code limits. Daytime visitor caps apply; no weddings or large events at single-family STRs.
Occupancy calculated by bedroom count on Certificate of Occupancy, not marketing listings. Infants under 2 generally not counted. Daytime guest cap typically 1.5x overnight occupancy or a hard number such as 20. Event-style gatherings (weddings, receptions, corporate parties) are prohibited at residential STRs and may require separate special event permitting.
Overoccupancy: 500 dollars per violation plus potential registration revocation on repeat offenses.
