Could our occupancy limit be considered discrimination?
Texas code Sec. 92.010 says: the maximum number of adults that a landlord may allow to occupy a dwelling is three times the number of bedrooms in the dwelling. So that would be 9 adults for a 3 bedroom unit. If I were to only allow 2 occupants per bedroom, that isn't violating any Fair Housing Laws, is it?
Also, what if I wanted to say of the 6 occupants, only 2 could be adults, so let's say 2 parents and 4 kids? Would that get me in trouble for discrimination?

It says "can allow" not "must allow".
