research-l Mailing List: Re: Research on longevity and cohousing?

[Chuck Maclane (chuck.maclane]

Hi Angela, hard to have contact with you without going on about a certain beautiful baby, but I will try. I have been thinking about an analysis we could try that dovetails with the subject of this thread. In our community and resident surveys( and perhaps the other surveys that we were involved with) I have a memory that you kept a key that we could use to access the identifiers in anonymized files. If we were able to connect with respondents going back 5 or 10 years we could have a sample from which we could do an estimate of longevity, Maybe. Is this feasible?

Congratulations, Chuck

Hi David and all,

In our recurring surveys (Carol—CRN is already doing this as you suggest, though only every 5 years to-date) we ask some related questions (age, perceived physical health compared to others of same age), but I don’t know of any study that directly gets at the cohousing and longevity question… yet!

All the best,

Angela

Angela, I thought there may be some questions in earlier research that might have some bearing on this question, or at least some national research on value of community vs. loneliness/isolation re: longevity.   David

I would love a study like that. We can do simple surveys every year to check in with cohousing at least as far how they are doing. How many houses built? How many members moved in? How many moved out? Could start getting simple data.

Anyone else interested in that?

Carol

Hi, CRN folks --

I received the video and question below from a member of Berkeley Moshav (my community, currently in development). Has there been any research along these lines? Could/should there be?

Thanks,

~Roger

Hi Roger,
I think this is very interesting and may relate to cohousing. I wonder if anyone has done a study of cohousing and longevity.
