Rachel, like Ross and Phoebe, has lived with the other five Friends members. In the first episode of season one, she moves in with Monica. In season 6 she moves in with Phoebe until their apartment catches fire, which leads to Rachel moving in with Chandler and Monica. Phoebe moves in with Joey. Phoebe grows jealous of the treatment and they swapped which leads to Rachel moving in with Joey. In season 8 Rachel moves in with Ross so they can take care of their new baby Emma. After a fight with Ross, she moves back in with Joey in season 9, and stays there until the end of season 10.

Rachel, like Joey and Chandler, has kissed all five of her fellow Friends castmembers. She kissed Ross numerous times during their romantic relationships, she kissed Chandler at a college party in "The One Where the Stripper Cries," she kissed Phoebe when Phoebe wanted to know what the fuss was after Rachel convinced her that she shared a passionate kiss with her old sorority buddy in "The One with Rachel's Big Kiss," she kissed Joey numerous times during their brief relationship, and she kissed Monica after striking a deal with Chandler and Joey to get their apartment back if they kissed for one minute in front of them, though this is off-screen.

In "The One With Phoebe's Uterus", it is implied that Rachael has a "Foot Fetish"

One of Rachel's trademark expressions when shocked or angry was to drag out the enunciation of the word "no." This was periodically paired with Monica's "I know!"
