Co-living is normal in many other cultures. Maybe not in a SFH but in dwellings specifically designed for it, but still fairly normal.
Covid I think drove ppl apart, but with Omicron being less deadly and have mostly swept through most of the world, and hopefully no new variant comes out we should be walking out of the covid cloud by the end of the year and with it comes some new co-living initiatives. Lots of the nordic countries have setups that shared communal areas and with how expensive things are I think could be a worthwhile idea to try for ppl who are willing to. Studies have shown kids grow up better in a communal setting as well and the saying "it takes a whole village" I believe comes from having a village to help raise kids while the working adults were making a living.
