2 of 5 joint tenants want to break lease.

The whole renting rooms with common area access scenario is very common in college towns. It certainly does kind of hint at students when one place has 5 roommates.

Yes. It sounds like a student rental to me, although I suppose the co-tenants could be single coworkers. For example, it is not unusual for government workers to share a living space with others in their capital city for work and live somewhere else.
