SHAREDEASY is PROUD to Celebrate PRIDE Month

“When you put love out in the world it travels, and it can touch people and reach people in ways that we never even expected.” — Laverne Cox

Today is the last Sunday of June, the original “Gay Pride Day” that has since grown to the current month-long celebration. Many Pride events for 2020 have, unfortunately, been postponed or canceled. We can’t hold big events, but Pride is still needed. For some, especially in this time, it’s needed more than ever.

Pride Month is about so much more than rainbow flags and colorful parades. It is also about recognizing and remembering the struggles that the LGBTQ community has faced throughout history. The Stonewall Riots, which took place in Greenwich Village in New York City in June of 1969, was a launchpad for the Gay Pride Movement setting off protests and demands for equal rights. A year later, the first Gay Pride Parade took place. It is so important to remember the history it is so much more than just parades. We are able to celebrate Pride Month today because of the fight and struggle of all those who came before. It was a prime example of how revolt, revolution and standing up for individual freedom started a movement that changed history.

Whether you identify as LGBTQ or are an ally, everyone can join in the celebration of love. Pride Month is about love, acceptance and being proud of who you are. It is a celebration of the individual, of the freedom to be that individual and to honor your individuality and your right to claim your individual freedom. Love is loud, love is inclusive, love is freedom. SharedEasy honors that freedom, we are committed to an environment of inclusiveness, we are a community made up of individuals and we celebrate the individuality of each and every one of our community members.

SharedEasy is committed to redefining “home,” and we are PROUD to open our doors to so many incredible individuals and to have the freedom to celebrate their uniqueness. We are a diverse community and that makes us strong. We extend a warm welcome to all who enter our doors and call SharedEasy home.

Coliving is a home….where you can be yourself. Today we honor all of those who have sacrificed and fought for that right.
Happy Pride!

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the FAQs by people considering transitioning to coliving.

  • What is Coliving?

    Coliving is a residential model in which individuals get a private bedroom in a furnished home with shared common areas. It is a bunch of biologically unrelated people living together in the same place. Usually, residents in a coliving space share interests, values, or intentions.

    Coliving is a type of housing where people live together in a shared space, often with shared amenities. It is a re-imagination of the age-old concept of community, based on the tenets of openness, collaboration, the sharing economy, and social networking.

    Coliving spaces can be found in cities all over the world, but they are particularly popular in New York City. There are many different types of coliving spaces, from small apartments with a few roommates to large co-living communities with hundreds of residents.

    Coliving spaces often have common areas for residents to socialize, work, and relax, as well as shared kitchen and laundry facilities.

  • What are the benefits of co-living?

    Coliving can be a great way to meet new people and make friends, as well as save money on rent and other expenses. Co-living is affordable, convenient, and flexible.

    Many co-living spaces are located in convenient locations near public transportation, restaurants, and other amenities, which makes your commute time shorter, and affords you the advantage of greater productivity.

  • What amenities are typically included in a co-living space in NYC?

    Amenities typically available in coliving spaces include laundry, kitchen, swimming pools, workspaces, access to gyms and other health clubs, leisure areas, and spas. All the utilities and WiFi are included in the rental amount. Some spaces offer access to house cleaning services, and occasionally catered parties depending on the community. Coliving spaces catering to new parents may offer a playground for the children or access to vetted child care services.

    Co-living sounds like an answer to everything you’ve ever asked about homes, neighborhoods, or life as digital nomads. Some coliving spaces offer private bedrooms and bathrooms, while others have shared sleeping and living areas. Coliving spaces often have common areas for residents to socialize, work, and relax, as well as shared kitchen and laundry facilities.

  • Is co-living a good idea?

    Coliving can be a great choice for someone who wants to move to a big city, save big on a luxury apartment, and keep things simple. However, for someone who wants to live outside a major US city and doesn’t like the idea of sharing their space, it’s not a great choice.

    It is also a great fit for those who want to belong to a company of like-minded people and build their social network. It can be very rewarding and enriching to belong to a community of people with the same interests. You get to learn, grow, and develop yourself. You can also build a great working relationship, and potentially snag yourself a mentor or a co-founder.

    All the great companies were built by people in the same network! Coliving offers flexibility and helps foster friendships between strangers. Newcomers are sure to find themselves welcomed into the community with open arms.

    Coliving is a great way to learn about the cultures of other people and appreciate diversity. Another attraction of coliving is the lifestyle. Coliving houses are situated in busy areas, so cafes, bars, and shopping are only a couple of minutes away from your house, which is great if long commutes are a chore for you. It is a plus for you if your coliving community is located in a place with excellent nightlife.

    In terms of cost, coliving is firmly within the average price range for properties, being that you’re paying for both the house and the service rendered.

  • Does SharedEasy Have an App?

    SharedEasy does not have an app at the moment, just an amazing website with ample information and details on each property. Important information includes the number of units, their availability, and the appliances contained in each unit, as well as a map of the place and a tour of the property. There’s something for everyone on the website.

  • Where Can I Find a Coliving Space?

    There are coliving spaces all over the United States. SharedEasy offers coliving options in New York and Los Angeles.

There are spaces in East New York, Cobble Hill, Clinton Hill, Bushwick, Brooklyn Heights, Broadway, East Village, Inwood, Soho, Chelsea, Ridgewood, Hell’s Kitchen, Harlem, Midtown East, and Jersey City.
