Cohousing-L Mailing List: Studies of cohousing?

[Fred H. Olson (fholson]

In recent correspondence with an academic person interested in
alternative housing I was asked:
> 
> I wonder if there have been any studies on the co-housing movement - 
> eg to gauge number of people living in co-housing, rate of growth, define 
> various forms of co-housing etc.

I recall various studies, have proposed one of cohousing-L subscribers
that has sort of stalled etc but I could not give a good answer and am not
aware of any studies with quatifiable results.  Anyone know of anything?
Also over time we hear from students wanting to study cohousing.

One place to start would be a search of Cohousing-L archives but I have
not had the time to do this today.

posting yesterday or was that earlier today.)
