Goodyear does not set a specific per-bedroom guest cap for STRs. Occupancy is governed by building code capacity and fire safety standards. The 2022 state amendments enhanced city tools to address party houses and overcrowding.
The City of Goodyear does not define specific occupancy limits for short-term rentals beyond building code standards. Maximum occupancy is determined by the dwelling's International Building Code capacity based on square footage and egress. The 2022 amendments to ARS 9-500.39 gave cities enhanced authority to address party houses and overcrowding in STRs. Goodyear can take enforcement action against properties creating nuisance conditions from overcrowding, excessive noise, and parking overflow.
Overcrowding beyond code capacity is a violation. Repeated nuisance conditions from overcrowding may result in STR license revocation.
