    Welcome to National Cohousing Open House Weekend — in the East Bay, and Beyond!

    National Cohousing Open House Weekend 2025

    Lots of area cohousing neighborhoods, established and forming, are doing events, both in person and virtual, this weekend (and in the week around it). You’ll find events in:

    • Fremont: Mission Peak Cohousing will be hosting a virtual tour on Sunday afternoon

    • Pleasant Hill: In-person tour Sunday morning.
    • Beyond: Events in West Sacramento, Fair Oaks, Cotati and the Sierra foothills will be listed on the Cohousing California website.
    • Everywhere: There’s a virtual national gathering Sunday afternoon wrapping things up. And don't forget the monthly "Cohousing Commons" national virtual gathering on May 10.

    Below you’ll find a listing of key events (including some national virtual ones) of interest, plus a map of the in-person gatherings.

    Please click on each individual event to learn more about it and RSVP. Please note the date/time — these are communities of private homes (or a future community site), and they aren’t equipped for you to drop in unannounced.

    Cohousing in Emeryville

    The City of Emeryville, tucked in between Berkeley and Oakland on the Eastern shore of the San Francisco Bay Area, is the home to the Bay Area’s first cohousing neighborhood, as well as a cohousing-ish Artists’ Coop that predates the concept. Here’s where you can register your interest and learn about opportunities.
