WHAT IS COLIVING?
People are now opting out of their own apartments and coliving instead. Co-living is a new way of living that is focused on community and convenience. Co-living is simply the reiteration of people living with roommates just with better amenities, more convenience, and fewer headaches. Coliving is a shared housing model, meaning that tenants, whom we call members, share kitchens, living rooms, and other common spaces with their private or shared bedrooms.
At AHR, our coliving homes provide private furnished units, bedrooms, and shared rooms, where convenience and value go hand-in-hand with comfort and community. Our off-campus housing and community service goes beyond just providing housing, we want to become your friends who hope to make your Berkeley experience easier and make you feel at home with a little help from our team.
