The average prices of basic rent in the Netherlands are outrageous. Someone dealing with a higher cost of living doesn&#8217;t generally have a positive outlook. Taking comfort in your community helps, which is why we think coliving is one of the <strong>best solutions to the housing crisis.<\/strong><\/p><p>While co-working spaces have been around for years in the office, coliving spaces are a relatively new phenomenon in Europe. Communal living traces back to the earliest days of human history, but communities in big cities are rare nowadays. <strong>A coliving community will bring communal living back to cities!<\/strong><\/p><p>But remember: just because you&#8217;re living in the same building, it doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s coliving.
