At what age is it safe to leave the bathroom while the child is in the bath?
In the next room checking on them every few minutes.

It's really never safe. But maybe an older kid I would. Like a kid who technically can take a shower but wants a bath for fun.

I wouldn't let the bath fill up if I am leaving them either water off and the water level very low a few inches or the water on and the drain is down as well but literally in the next room dressing the other child

My oldest is 10 and almost as tall as me. I still dont like it. That's why I like they take showers rather than baths

Usually around age 5 w open door and I talk to them or we'd sing (so I can hear them) constantly.

When I'm dressing one kid in the next room I do leave the other kid in the bath so he doesn't get cold. But I'm paranoid about it. I call out to him every 5-7 seconds, "Are you okay?"
He's called out more than once, "Why do you keep asking me?!" Poor kid. lol

Lol I make my kids sing or talk the whole time. They know the reason why.

Speaking as a kid who almost drowned - yes I was old enough to still remember. I did something stupid and bh was able to save myself but I never leave my kids alone unless I hear them talking /singing.
