New Brighton Cohousing is an owner-occupied community (no rentals), located in Aptos, California. We were formed out of the umbrella organization Santa Cruz Cohousing in the fall of 2007. Most of the original owners are still here, but we have had a small, healthy turnover. As we say now, this is the perfect time in the life of our community- old enough that all the really hard work of starting a cohousing community has been done, but new enough that we are still open and willing to entertain new ideas to make the community better.
