What we’re about
Join others organizing to create CoHousing opportunities in Silicon Valley, for raising kids, being more social, or for retirement. The Bay Area has a rich cohousing history, with a number of communities in the East Bay, Davis, etc. Sadly, the peninsula area has not attracted as much interest, but there are a number of communal homes and interested people who may be able to serve as the seed to get more communities started! There are a lot of possibilities for retrofit cohousing here, where a group buys an apartment complex and then adds common space. And with this broader area having so many communities, there is plenty of expertise to draw on.
