Our neighborhood of 56 townhomes has at least 10 units with a single elderly person living alone. These are three bedroom homes of about 2000 square feet each.

I've thought a few times about how inefficient this is, economically. Maybe these homes could be modified to split them in two relatively unequal pieces, with a one bedroom apartment and two bedroom apartment.

Other than the traffic/parking argument, I haven't heard any good arguments why someone should not be allowed to modify their property in this way.
