More details to this question:
My son and daughter in law are at my house 80% of the time and when I'm not there, they stay all night at my request. The property manager has given me a 30 day notice to vacate. They give me the reason that they can’t be there that much.

If your lease has a provision as to how often guests or others can be there, then you may have clearly breached the contract. Even if the lease does not mention that, their being there so much obviously puts more ware and tear on the rugs, floors, etc. than if there was just one occupant. If you told the landlord you would be the only one living there, you would be in violation of the lease.

The legality depends on the size of your rental unit and the terms of your lease, as regards visitors staying at your unit. You are entitled to 60 days notice if you have been there more than a year.
