Hi Kelly,

Congratulations on everything you have accomplished so
far!

It sounds like you have covered your local area fairly
well. You might consider casting your net farther
afield, to those who are interested in cohousing
already and willing to move to get it. 

Do you have any ad space in the cohousing magazine?
The Fellowship for Intentional Communities magazine?
Maybe you could target the closest urban areas to you.


My group has had good luck attracting retirees, both
from other parts of Texas and from out-of-state.
Austin's climate may be a factor, but not everybody
likes hot weather. 

Hope this helps,
