Fair Housing
Under the Fair Housing Act, which of the following is an example of a permissible occupancy standard?
AA maximum of one person per bedroom for all properties
BA two-person-per-bedroom standard that considers specific circumstances like unit size and health/safety factors✓ Correct
CNo children under age 10 allowed in any unit
DA requirement that all tenants be unmarried adults
Explanation
HUD's Fair Housing Guidance endorses a two-person-per-bedroom guideline as a reasonable starting point, but it also requires consideration of specific circumstances (total unit size, age of children, physical configuration). Rigid per-bedroom limits that exclude families without consideration of circumstances may be discriminatory.
