I believe the answer is:

apartment

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'home' is the definition.

'some people uncoupling at' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'some' could be 'part' (only part of something) and 'part' is present in the answer.
'people' could be 'men' (men are people) and 'men' is located in the answer.
'at' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for apartment that I've seen before include "19 across" , "quarters" , "Suite of rooms to live in" , "Penthouse" , "place to live" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
