Cohousing Information
Vision
Promising to share when purchasing a unit fuels the solidarity that binds us together. Security assured not only by cameras and locks, but the attention and care of resident neighbors. Efficiency gained not only with a high quality building, but meal sharing, bartering and care giving. Sustainability offered not just by energy saving technology, but ride sharing, cycling, and walking.
What is Cohousing?
Cohousing is a residential community of private homes or condos that share a common space intentionally designed to foster social interaction among neighbors and create a safe and friendly environment for kids and seniors alike. Voluntary interaction and interdependency among households at different stages of the life cycle reduces the prospect for social isolation and dependency.
Why Choose Cohousing?
If you like a daily dose of other people beyond your household, cohousing offers just what you need. You meet many of your neighbors before moving in, finding a place in the social community as you settle into your own private dwelling. Participating periodically in social activities and building management work contributes to the welfare of your neighbors as it inspires personal conversation and friendships.
