Cohousing planning
Cohousing is an exciting new trend in community development. If you are interested in forming a cohousing community in your area or simply interested in the concept, this is a good place to start.  There are just over 200 cohousing associations in the US today.  About half are complete or nearly so.  The other half are in the planning or formation stages.

 

This website is dedicated to spreading the word and the information related to cohousing communities, eco-villages, intentional neighborhoods and sustainable communities - or any other concept that is looking at improved ways to live, respect our environment and relate to the people in our lives.

CoHousing Communities:

Cohousing, sometimes called "intentional communities" or "eco- villages", an be the ideal housing solution for people who find living in detached homes in neighborhoods that leave families feeling isolated and even lonely.  The days of allowing your children to just go outside to play seem to be gone as do neighborhood cookouts and dropping over for a cup of coffee. Some feel it's not too late to recapture that lifestyle.

 

To learn more about cohousing communities, visit the websites of come completed cohousing developments.  You can also learn what's involved in joining a group in progress or study about how to start your own community.
