Be careful how you think about this. The general rules are 2 people per bedroom, plus one. That would be 9. You can't assume certain people will live in certain rooms. I also know that there are usually other HUD guidelines related to the amount of square feet per room in order to allow a certain number of people to sleep in that room. I don't remember the specifics, but just thought it was something to look into. If you have a room that's under 100 square feet, it may not be big enough for two people. I remember some sort of ruling that there must be at least 50 square feet per person in the room.
