Unless you are talking about fast DC chargers, an EV's current draw is comparable to a households appliance, such as an electric range, dryer or furnace.

I'd be surprised to hear of a community with trunk lines that actually can't handle 1-2 EVs per house.

Yes, but these things are the big electric consumers so adding a new class of high load appliances on a mass scale is a big deal.
