Need a little more info regarding your situation. Do you mean in a small apartment? Do you have to store it outdoors? In the garage of your house? Etc?
I’m in the latter of that situation and most of my several bikes are in the garage that has a high ceiling, with three of them being suspended from the overhead with one of those ceiling-mounted pulley contraptions that you can get for around $20 US dollars.

Agreed with Dan above, a little more info is needed, but if storing indoors and space is an issue, I've used one of these in an apartment before with pretty good results.

By leaning it against a wall of your dwelling?

I’d be interested to see what good ideas people have for outdoor storage. I have a garage but its not a garage… and we have a shed for bikes but it’s full. So I have 3 that stay outside under those fabric bike covers from amazon. Something better would be nice though. For now some of the bikes are stuck with being under covers. If it was dry here I’d be fine with that but we live near the beach so even being covered eventually rust comes back especially on my vintage bikes

I agree, leaning against a wall will be most economical.
