Mine live in their cases. During the more humid months, I may have one or two out on stands. The cases live in a closet where I have become very inventive on storing cases for all sorts of string instruments. It's a normal-sized closet with a 3' door and holds 6 guitars, 5 banjos, a mandolin, autoharp, tiple, bodhran and a variety of small supplies. I have a deacon's bench on which 3 others are set. No one ever sat there when we had the space. So now it is used.

I asked a similar question and got some nice ideas here:
https://www.acousticguitarforum.com/...d.php?t=640321 What I ended up with, is a String Swing case rack on the floor, with one of these shelves built over it, of course omitting some shelves and rails. https://a.co/d/idyYfKP

My acoustics hang on the walls. About 15 of them. String Swing USA works great.
For the electrics, which are heavier, they are on a floor rack, also made by String Swing. It's placed in a corner so it can't really be knocked over. The cases are stacked up in my dry, finished basement. I play guitar a lot more frequently now that I keep the guitars out instead of in their case. I do have to humidify the music room in the winter, as the heater dries it out too much when it gets really cold (below freezing). But besides those rare times, I don't need the humidifier. I keep a digital hygrometer on a shelf in the room so I can quickly check it when I walk by.

My guitars live outside their cases on stands, ready to be grabbed and played.
Between two kids, 5 dogs, and five grandkids, I've never had a single problem. As for the cases (all are Hiscox Pro II's), they live in available closet space in my music room. All of my guitars get played out at our local Open Mic and some make the occasional trip to London with me.

I keep most of my guitars in cases, and some in cases. I have a small wardrobe in my bedroom which holds nine cases plus my mandolin plus some coats and jackets.
I have erected a shelf above the stairs which holds five cases, Here:
