"Imagine a living arrangement in which multiple, individually owned housing units ... are oriented around a common open area and a common house - a place where community is a way of life. Imagine residents who actively cooperate ... with one goal in mind - to recreate an old-fashioned neighborhood that supports friendly cooperation, socialization, and mutual support, imagine senior co-housing."
"cohousing downsizes liabilities and upsizes quality of life"
"cohousing offers the social and practical advantages of a closely-knit neighborhood consistent with the realities of 21st century life."
