A Neighborhood on Purpose

In our cohousing community members work together to create a socially rich community that is safe, sustainable, diverse, egalitarian, supportive, attractive and affordable.

Members collaborate to plan and develop their own neighborhood. Homes are owned privately but are deliberately clustered to provide a village-like common space that is protected from vehicle traffic. There is also a common house, which typically includes dining, recreation and childcare facilities and other amenities. In our community there is no effort to establish a religious or philosophical creed; what we share is a desire to live more economically, sustainably, and cooperatively.

Great dinner yesterday

We had a great community dinner yesterday, with all members present and a slew of new and returning visitors. It was a very energetic meeting.

One of our newcomers mentioned a recently released survey of U.S. cohousing communities on the cohousing.org site. Be sure to click through to the study itself, which is fascinating.
