Cohousing-L Mailing List: looking for built or nearly built cohousing elsewhere

[Alex Aminoff (alex]

Dear Cohousers,

We would like to live in cohousing somewhere in the United States. Can
you please help us narrow down the possibilities?

We recently had to withdraw from membership after two years of
hearbreaking labor on Cornerstone Village cohousing in Cambridge,
MA. Several people on this list have suggested that the thing to do if
you cannot make cohousing work where you are is to move to an area
where cohousing is already successful.

We are looking for a 3-bedroom unit, preferably a townhouse or duplex
rather than an apartment, in a cohousing community that is either up
and running or pretty far along. We would prefer not to have to
commute to our jobs by car.  We are very interested in some sort of
shared childcare in the community (we don't have children yet but
would like to soon). We prefer an area (but not necessarily a
cohousing community) with a high density of technology people and
technology jobs.

Please suggest cohousing communities to us that might fit these
criteria. We have looked through all the listings, but it is often
hard to glean some of the details we are interested in from TCN's
units available listings and groups' web sites.

Thank you for your help and advice,
- Alex & Jenise Aminoff
