CHARTS: A fast and easy reference. Searching for a large, urban ecovillage? A community with lots of children? Just use the handy chart to quickly find the community that meets your needs.

ARTICLES: Covers the basics of intentional community including what they are, how to visit, and the state of the communities movement.

A comment from Patch Adams:
"The Communities Directory is one of my favorite books. It is so clearly the best book for anyone who wants to live community.... The listing of communities is a cornucopia of free better homes and gardens; an invitation to a much deeper kind of wealth and economy, asking only for your joyful effort.... If humankind is to survive, it will be because it learns to live community. This is its guidebook--please get it." --Patch Adams, Gesundheit! Institute
