Cohousing-L Mailing List: Achieving age diversity

[Barbara Sarah (bsarah]

We are now recruiting new prospective residents for our 30-36 unit project in 
Rosendale, NY. We'd like to know how other communities have been able to 
achieve an equitable mix of ages - families and older people without children. 
We are doing outreach to schools. pediatricians, etc., yet still are finding it 
much easier to attract people over 55 years to our meetings. Have any of you 
designed quotas? If so, what kind? Do they work? All suggestions appreciated.
