Austin area Baby Boomers, other seniors, and Gen X-ers all seek a new kind of affordable senior housing when they think about retirement. And they often think about shared housing Austin options.

Many attempts have been made to bring shared housing communities to life in Central Texas, but few have gained enough traction for viability. Why?

The Needs

To meet their retirement or near retirement needs, many Baby Boomers, other seniors, and Gen X-ers nationwide seek solutions for ...

• Affordable and sustainable senior housing.

• Greater economic security through small and part-time work or entrepreneurial pursuits.

• Communal support.

• Aging in place.

The Drivers

Our members and prospective members ...

• Do not want to live alone and have a keen interest in shared housing solutions for an affordable and sustainable retirement.

• Still want or need to work and continue to be vital in today’s economy.

• Seek and enjoy the amenities of urban living near mass transit hubs and medical facilities.

• Care about environmental issues and innovative design solutions.

The Solution

At Boomers Collaborative Foundation, we have devised an entirely new approach to retirement to holistically and comprehensively address all of these needs and drivers. We are planning a mixed-use facility in a viable urban village setting where seniors can collaborate to share resources, co-live in a senior housing cooperative, and co-work (if they want or need to continue) to work in a multi-functional collaboration space so that all member beneficiaries may thrive.
