Tyler sets no short-term-rental occupancy cap. With no STR ordinance in place, guest numbers are governed only by building- and fire-code occupancy standards, not a per-bedroom rental limit.
Tyler has no short-term-rental ordinance and therefore no rental-specific occupancy formula — no per-bedroom guest cap or maximum-guest rule exists in the city code. Occupancy is bounded only by the adopted building and fire codes, which limit how many people a dwelling can safely hold based on egress and square footage. Hosts on Airbnb and Vrbo may set their own occupancy limits, and HOAs or deed restrictions can impose caps, but these are private rules, not city ordinances.
No STR occupancy penalty exists in city code. Overcrowding that breaches the building or fire code can draw a code-enforcement or fire-marshal citation under Sec. 1-4.
