New townhouses - say four per "building"
I assume that there should be one service location with a group of 4 meters with disconnects.

Does any know any different? (like individual services)
Rated partitions between the townhouses but not fire walls.
Townhomes can have different definitions in different places around the country and even multiple definitions in the same jurisdiction (as we have here in FL).
I've always worked townhomes as single family homes which share a common wall. They're sold with the land underneath and any unit can be removed/ demolished while the rest of the units stand. We would never allow the dependency on other units as you're describing.
You don't provide a location. I suggest you check with your AHJ to see how they classify townhomes. It's cheaper to change it on paper than on the Earth.
Townhouse is a dwelling unit (generally two story) that may share a sidewall with other units but does not have other units above or below.
In my case it would be rental units where the building and property is owned by the landlord.
On the other hand I could see a situation where the exact same building had individual owners (like row houses).
I have not seen where this is specifically addressed in the NEC.
