What I'm using right now is called "My Home Is Your Home 2+" which is an upgrade on the original, to allow for more home assignments, in addition to both day and night work/sleep. I want to say it will handle up to 250, but don't quote me on that. I use Amazing Follower Tweaks, which keeps track of previous followers and only has room for 30 to be managed, so what I do is get them to follow me, take them home and give them their bed/work/guard assignments, and then use the AFT reset on them, to return them to their original state. From then on, they live at my place. As far as where to put them, there are several modded homes with follower bunkrooms. I am currently using Misereth Hall by The Wanderer, but I have in the past built Hearthfire homes, including but not furnishing all 3 towers, and then using Jaxonz Positioner to put beds in them, and the same in the basement. You don't need them to be in a home you own, though. I have also put entire squads of followers in camps, around towns, inns, and even in mines. Pavo now has a full guard force at Kolskeggr mine, in case (when) the Forsworn come back. There is a new mod out, called NPC party, which looks like it is shaping up to do both jobs plus some, but I haven't tried it yet. Thanks! You have given me a lot to check! :)
