Nowadays, having 3 kids is a lot, but some people have far more--most couples have one or two. If you want to have a large family, 3 is a pretty natural stopping point:
Homes with 4 bedrooms* are not the most common, but they're common enough that they're not hard to find. Once you get above 4 bedrooms, those are rare.
Most cars seat 5 people. Minivans and SUVs that hold more than 5 are available, but owning two of them means that every commute is done with a low mileage vehicle and every two-car garage will feel tight.
*Our oldest, who is closing in on her Ph.D. once asked us, when she was very young, if we were poor. I replied that we were fairly well-off, though not rich and asked why she thought we might be poor. She answered, "How come you and mommy have to share a bedroom"?
