Yellow5/10Real unzoned rural townships exist; Eden Prairie flatly bans running any home business out of a detached accessory structure.
In Minnesota, the practical wall — where one exists — tends to show up at Phase 3, flatly blocked in some suburbs, no wall in unzoned rural townships.

Where a jurisdiction allows any paying-customer traffic at all, the realistic ceiling tends to be low and specific — a numeric cap set right in the ordinance, like Plano, TX's 6-students-per-session limit on outdoor instructional classes. Scaling past that volume is usually possible, but the honest path runs through an actual permit process, which typically sets your booking cap as a condition of approval rather than leaving it open-ended.
