Our Mission
Transforming lives and communities through cooperative enterprise
CoNorth is a cooperative development nonprofit specializing in manufactured housing co-op development and support.
Our work creates and revitalizes neighborhoods, empowers low-income and historically marginalized people, and promotes affordable, self-governing communities that last for generations.

CoNorth currently supports 17 communities and we work in tandem to support:
Community Stability
Owning the land in common means homeowners aren’t forced to move due to escalating lot rents or sale of the community for profit.
Affordable Rents
Cooperative ownership keeps lot rents lower than market rate in for profit manufactured home communities
Community Control
An elected Board of Directors helps ensure resident needs are prioritized, not profit. This results in improvements to community storm shelters, landscaping, playgrounds, etc.
Accessible, Affordable Financing
CoNorth supported communities have access to durable, affordable, energy-efficient manufactured homes at below market rates via our CoNorth Homes dealership (insert links). We collaborate with Neighborworks Home Partnership (insert link) to provide homeowner education and financing tools to lower barriers to ownership.
