Marie Owen wants to create a greater sense of community between her neighbors and the rest of the city through the concept of co-housing. Owen and her sister Hilda Owen attended the Cohousing Conference 2010 in Boulder, Colo., last June, and started laying the groundwork to form a co-housing community in Jackson. “(A co-housing neighborhood) is a neighborhood that’s turned inside out. Our neighborhoods now are built for cars, not people,” Owen says.
