Living in Community
Living in Community
Cohousing is a form of collaborative living where a group of people decides to live in community, sharing spaces and resources while maintaining private homes. At Lagungarri, residents actively participate in the planning and management of the community, promoting coexistence and mutual support.
Senior Cohousing refers to housing facilities that started in Europe, America, and other parts of the world as an alternative to traditional senior residences, which often fail to address the issues of aging: loneliness and dependency.
These facilities consist of the development of a housing complex with social, cultural, and healthcare services promoted by and for senior individuals, self-managed, in a collaborative, non-profit model.
Senior Cohousing is aimed at adult individuals without family commitments, while intergenerational cohousing includes people of various ages, from young parents raising children to independent adults. Lagungarri is a senior community, promoting coexistence among independent adults without family housing responsibilities.
In this model, the cooperative owns the property, and members have the right to use the homes and common spaces indefinitely. This prevents real estate speculation and ensures residential stability.
