There has been much interest of late in retirement, assisted-living,
catered-for-your-lifestyle communities & cohousing neighborhoods both
involving and exclusively for Gay & Lesbian single and partnered
couples.

These might be built in areas of North America that have shown
themselves to be ` open ` to such communities/ventures.
Areas such as MS, AL, GA, LA, AZ, NM, NV, CA dare I say it---even
TX, etc. would be options where, with careful planning, the land,
building costs, living costs, etc. are reasonably inexpensive. ( "
Sister "—forgive the word—communities for beach bums, sailors, RVers,
etc. might be feasible in coastal Sonora ( San Carlos, Bahia Kino
would be examples here) & Baja California ( Loreto, Mulege, Rosalia,
Todos Santos could be examples here), MX. and some sort of monitored
swapping/exchange of housing could be arranged between the various
communities' owners---variety being, as they say—the ' spice of life
'.)

For the most part, sunnier climes would be favored.

These CoHousing Communities would be marketed to seniors, but would
not exclude younger persons & children ( so as to provide diversity to
these neighborhoods-communities), to maturing Gays & Lesbians through
mailings, the Internet ( Groups on Yahoo!, Google, MSN, etc. known to
be favored by ` alternative lifestyle ` guys & gals), through TV,
radio, print ads, word-of-mouth, and through the CoHousing Association
of America, etc.

Both single residences, casitas-patio homes, condos/townhouses, shared
and fractional ownership, time-share ownership would be explored as
methods to buy into & sustain these ventures.

Businesses & professionals ( e.g, Architects, builders, contractors,
Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants, maintenance folks, police, firemen,
etc.) who are of like ilk to ourselves would be recruited to give
service to these communities/neighborhoods.

Considering our benefit to some smaller towns & cities across America
(& MX) and the potential value to these regions, our presence would
be welcomed.

This is a feasibility study, and is directed at folks who might have
an opinion on these matters & who might, given the right set of
circumstances, be interested in ownership, renting, leasing,
subletting etc. in
such communities.
