Cottage courts, seen as a means to address housing shortages, consist of small bungalow-style homes organized around a communal courtyard, fostering community among residents.
According to AARP, these developments are compatible with single-family zones, promoting a space for older Americans to age in place while maintaining community connection.
Some advocates view cottage courts as a way to enhance communal living, similar to accessory dwelling units but serving as separate structures that promote interaction.
Heather Long highlighted the innovative nature of cottage courts, expressing surprise at their potential role in reshaping the American housing landscape for older adults.
