Each of the housing co‑ops in these lists is owned co‑operatively by its members, who elect a board of directors to govern and oversee its management. If you want to live in a housing co‑op, you need to apply for membership. Members are expected to take part in running the co‑op. Most co‑ops have rent-geared-to-income units, and some offer housing for people with special needs.
