Does cohousing typically attract extroverts or introverts?
The short answer is, “Both”. Cohousing has been studied and equal numbers of extroverts and introverts were found. The truth is that humans are social animals, and they need privacy — it is just the ratios that differ. When you know your neighbors, it’s pretty easy to find the right balance for you. In a typical detached-home neighborhood, privacy is easy, but it’s harder to move beyond isolation into good connections with neighbors.
