What is Cohousing?
Sharing Turns Proximity into Community
Cohousing is a residential community of adjoining private homes or apartments that share an active common space. The common space is intentionally designed to foster social interaction among neighbors and create a safe and friendly environment for kids and seniors alike.
It usually includes a large kitchen and dining area, children play area, exercise space, lounge areas, guest room and garden. Residents and guests regularly use these spaces, gathering for meals, parties, games, movies, or other events. Cohousing makes it easy to organize child or elder care, make conversation, share burdens, and offer help.
