If you've been wondering to yourself how many bedrooms and bathrooms a typical American home has then today is your lucky day.

OK OK ...you caught me. I'm probably technically wrong to say that most homes have 3+ beds AND 2+ bathrooms since that isn't really captured in the data and we don't have 100% overlap between the 2+ bathroom homes and the 3+ bedroom homes. But close enough.
Now you know.
