Can I use a single 20-amp breaker for a bathroom and adjacent small bedroom in my basement?

2 I am in the process of wiring my basement. 1. Main area 2. Hallway 3. Small Bath 4. Small Bedroom with egress window. I have a single 15-amp and 20-amp wire coming in from the electrical panel located in the garage. Based on my reading I should use 12-2 Romex for all the outlets (even though the builder only use 15-amp for the new construction ). Then use 14-2 Romex for any lighting? Is this true? So, I guess my real question is do I actually need a single circuit for the bathroom or can I share the circuit with bathroom and bedroom. wiring share | improve this question asked Dec 22 '18 at 15:21 Christop...
