Each of our houses has a unique character, but all appreciate a diversity in members' backgrounds, occupations, and interests. We try to create a safe, supportive family & community atmosphere. Every house has a complete inexpensive meal plan (some houses are vegetarian, others are not), which costs an average of $90/month and features home-cooked dinners prepared by house members.

Affordable room charges include utilities, laundry facilities, household supplies, local telephone, and funds for repairs and improvements. Charges vary by house, room size and whether you share a room (most are singles).

As a member of your house, you take on your share of the chores: cooking, cleaning, house finances, or serving as House Rep on an MCC Committee; and are part of the group decision-making that takes place in house meetings. As a member of the larger co-op community, you have a voice in issues that affect all the houses, give your input to the House Rep for the MCC Board, and take part in the MCC General Membership Meetings.
