The 80-page quarterly is focusing increasingly on cohousing communities and aspiring ecovillages, as those are two of the fastest-growing kinds of communities in North America today. Articles and columns cover practical "how-to" issues of community living as well as personal stories about forming new communities, decision-making, conflict resolution, raising children in community, sustainability, and much more.

In Communities magazine you'll find:

• Issues organized around a particular theme (about half the articles in each issue are focused around a central theme).
• Ongoing columns by experienced communitarians and community founders.
• Reach ads - helping communities looking for members, and people looking for communities, find each other.
