McKinney STR occupancy is capped based on bedrooms, typically two adults per bedroom plus two additional, with daytime event caps to prevent party-house use in residential neighborhoods.
Overnight occupancy is limited to two persons per bedroom plus two additional guests, not counting children under 6. A three-bedroom STR therefore sleeps up to 8. Daytime visitors are typically capped at 1.5 times the overnight occupancy, with no more than 20 total persons on site in single-family residential districts. Weddings, receptions, and commercial events at STRs require separate special event permits. Occupancy must be posted inside the unit.
Overcrowding citation up to $500 per offense. Unpermitted events: up to $2,000 per TX Local Government Code §54.001 health and safety provisions. Event violations count as STR strikes.
