Shared Housing is a negotiated agreement between adults about how they will live under the same roof.
People share housing in:
- Cities
- Suburbs
- Out in the country
They share:
- Ranch Houses
- Townhouses
- Apartments
- Condominiums
- Flats
There are as many variations as there are people, types of homes, and locations.
Shared Housing is for adults of any age and all circumstances:
- Graduate Students
- Retirees
- Working People
- Empty-Nesters
- Single Parents
- Business Professionals
Home-mates can be of the same generation or of different generations.
They might be the same or different in terms of:

- Class

- Sexual Orientation
- Race
- Life Circumstances
The variations are infinite!
