Intentional Community Networking Page  
Greater Los Angeles Area 
(and/or Southern California)

This page is primarily for those in the greater Los Angeles area (and/or Southern California) who have openings in their intentional communities or are seeking to be part of an intentional community.   You may have or be seeking to be part of a shared house, a cohousing group, a cooperatively owned or organized apartment building or neighborhood,  a start-up ecovillage or the retrofitting of an existing neighborhood to an ecovillage.   It is also a place to post your green livelihood opportunities or requests, close to where you live. 

You may also be looking for people to loan or invest money in yours or another eco community project.  Or you may be interested in finding persons with discretionary money to use in your socially responsible eco community project.   For more information on intentional communities, cohousing and ecovillages throughout the country and the world, please see www.ic.org and www.cohousing.org and www.ecovillage.org.  

We will try to update this page on a regular basis, and work toward making it interactive.

The listings here are in no particular order except that the most recent listings will be at the top of the list.   Please let us know when you have found one another through this page and/or when you would like to have your listing deleted or revised.

LIVING IN LOS ANGELES ECO-VILLAGE
If you are interested in exploring membership in the LAEV Intentional Community, please go to:  http://urbansoil.net/wiki.cgi/Becoming_a_member

From time to time, apartments are available in Los Angeles Eco-Village in apartment buildings not owned by CRSP.  Rents are at market rates for the area.  Sizes range from singles to two and sometimes three bedroom units.  If you would like to be notified when such units become available, let us know at <crsp@igc.org.>.   Please be enthusiastic about living without private car ownership (we're very bike and transit oriented; there is a Flexcar in the neighborhood, close by car rentals, and the possibility of informal car sharing when one is really in need).  We expect you to share LAEV values www.laecovillage.org/values.html and that you want to live more cooperatively and ecologically and that you already have, or are enthusiastica about getting, the knowledge and skills to do so.  Call for details.  Lois 213/738-1254

People who are interested in becoming a member of the L.A. Eco-Village Intentional Community go through a complex process which may or may not result in them being accepted for membership.  During this process period some candidates may want to live in the LAEV neighborhood alone or with a roommate who also has an affinity for cooperative ecological living.  Please be sure you are on our mailing list and get notified of our network gatherings.  Contact crsp@igc.org to be added.
