Yeah I agree with that, but there's also zoning issues involved. Chapter houses are not allowed in New Britain CT. If a single family house were to convert to a frat house, the zoning for my town would change in regards to the house. Houses with more then 4 women (unrelated) are also considered bordellos (whorehouses) according to my town and are also banned....yeah its stupid.
