temporary residents
Guests not staying
Temporary residents are people living in a place for a limited period rather than permanently.
The term typically applies to foreign nationals with time-restricted visas—students, seasonal workers, or visitors—who are legally present but not on a path to citizenship: The university provides housing for temporary residents.
It can also describe anyone staying somewhere briefly: The hotel caters to temporary residents awaiting permanent housing.
