Cohousing California

There's more cohousing neighborhoods in Oakland than any other California city -- and more than any other U.S. city except Portland, Oregon. Most are small, "retrofit"-style communities; the largest, Swan's Market Cohousing, is new-build in a mixed-use historic building at the heart of downtown Oakland, just 12 minutes from downtown San Francisco by subway. And there's new opportunities for "Instant Cohousing" at affordable prices for people willing to innovate together.
