i'm pretty sure max capacity is 2 per bedroom. I would look it up, usually your state website will have the max capacity.

The guidelines provided by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), one of the enforcement agencies for fair housing, recommend two persons per bedroom. For federally subsidized rental housing, HUD recommends two persons per bedroom plus two for the overall rental unit. This would mean a one-bedroom rental may have up to four occupants and a two-bedroom rental may have as many as six.
The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) recommends two persons per bedroom plus one additional person for the overall rental unit. In other words, three occupants in a one-bedroom rental and five occupants in a two-bedroom rental.
