roomer
Boardinghouse tenant type
A roomer is a person who rents a room in someone else's house, typically without kitchen privileges or full run of the household.
The arrangement is more limited than that of a tenant with a full apartment: The widow took in roomers to make ends meet.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned, largely replaced by "boarder" or "lodger."
