I am doing research on COHO and wonder if there is any kind of a list of names and locations of American CoHousing communities? Please email direct if large/ whatever. I enjoy reading all of your ideas everyone. My wife and I are new to this group and to this idea. CoHousing appears to be a paradigm shift back in time in some respects. What we would call CoHousing now in its intentional form was common sense in small communities 100-200 years ago. If anyone has read "The Third Wave" by Alvin Toffler he explains great shifts in how people live and what they do. The first wave was the agrarian society. The second was the industrial revolution which brought about sprawling urban developments. The third wave is what Toffler says is happening now. We see a shift back to the country. A shift down in purportion. Large companies are down sizing. People are wanting to work at home. We will soon have the cottage industry back again. I think people are sick and tired of being a number and want to be simply a human being. Cohousing is a breath of fresh air. Progress is not necessarily bigger is better or more is mightier. Less is more satisfing... 15 to 30 families. What a concept! People, lets take this idea and run. It makes good sense and on a large scale could rebuild this broken society. Matthew Woodbury
