community living

we’re here to help you on your journey to a more sustainable, connected life

Overview: Types of Communities

Commune, kibbutz, cohousing, co-living… there is so much out there to explore!

Resources for In-Depth Learning

Books, videos, seminars, and media community-minded folks have thoughtfully produced about community living.

Journalists occasionally get excited when they discover community living! We’ll try to keep a running list of community living in the news.

Listings for Existing Communities

Several organizations have directories of communities to help you join a community that’s already established – here is a list with some info about each.

Professional Services

Whether you’re looking to get a new community off the ground or find a mediator – there are professionals out there who can help!
