The houses of the "inhabitants" (by which I assume you mean the Villagers) are meant to be simplistic. Not every house in the village is meant to act as a used, inhabited house because the Villagers are not programmed with an idea of property ownership, just a simple AI to hide indoors and sleep in a bed when darkness arrives.
Fortunately very recently, Mojang has changed villages to include more useful houses, as almost every house contains a workstation a villager needs to stand next to in order to restock their trade items. I think this is about as advanced of property management as we can hope for the intentionally simplistic Villager AI, unless you have a more detailed suggestion on how it could be better implemented.

My avatar is a texture from a small block game I made in Python. It's not very good and it probably won't work if you install it.
I'm very alone in my Minecraft worlds as I don't have a very good internet connection to run a server. If you're like me, you might be interested in my Posse mod suggestion.

I'm finding this to be very much not the case in my 1.15.1 worlds, they're modded but there's not a whole lot of mods available yet so I think anything village-related is still purely vanilla (although the number is growing quickly). Most houses are the outhouse-like residential spaces that contain only a bed, and of the houses that have workstations by far the most common of them seem to be stonecutter houses (6 across 3 villages so far) followed by the blast furnaces (3 for 3) and looms (4 across 4 villages in a prior world).
