Often, this is to care for the elderly, or share in child-rearing responsibilities.
 
Our multigen homes are often located on acreage or large lots. They have "elbow room for the soul", which provides lots of room and privacy.

multigen homes: The MultiGenerational White House - It Worked for the First Family - 01/06/19 12:51 PM
I ( Debb) just finished reading Michelle Obama’s book “Becoming.” It’s a powerful testimonial about making decisions to excel in life and about overcoming obstacles. It’s also a great testimonial about the value of multigenerational living. Most of us are probably aware that the Obamas convinced Michelle’s mom to move into the White House to help care for their two young daughters when Barack’s Presidency began in 2009.  We applaud it as a wise decision for their family.  This post is not about politics, it's about the decision to live in a multi-gen home.

multigen homes: ViewHomes™ of Clark County - Multi-Gen Market Report - 02/20/17 08:36 AM

We continue to receive inquiries about multigenerational homes now that the lifestyle has become more popular.

Perks of the Multi-Gen Lifestyle
We just returned from a quick weekend trip to Bend, Oregon. Not only do we enjoy the scenic mountain town and its high-desert climate ( think lots of sun!), we especially love to visit our son, his wife, and three grandchildren. Since our youngest grandson is about nine-months old and crawling, we left our white Golden Retriever Mac at home this trip. He and their boxer tend to play a bit too rambunctious together, and we didn't want any baby mishaps.
What peace-of-mind it gave us to know our family was caring for Mac in our absence. Plus, because we live … (7 comments)
