I couldn’t continue living with my parents when I was seventeen and the coop was the one place that I could go. I loved the idea of being part of a community after living in less than desirable places. My mum helped me move there in the hope that I would calm down, grow up and meet a nice man. The next month we interviewed for the 4th member of our home and two years later we moved into a flat on the coop together. We were able to use the reasonable rent to save up a deposit for a house and get married twelve years after meeting. I guess mum’s always right in the end 😃
A great place to live, make friends and be a part of the community
