Cohousing: a new kind of old neighborhood

Communities and Banking, 2000, issue Spr, 19-21

Abstract: Cohousing is a housing development trend that is gaining wider acceptance within New England and the United States. In order to preserve a sense of community and connectedness within their neighborhoods, cohousing proponents in the United States have modeled their developments on those in Denmark. Often cohousing developments include a wide variety of residents, including lower-income households. In this issue, we look at how cohousing is spreading in Massachusetts.
