Commune - a group of
people living together
and
sharing possessions
and responsibilities
What are the positives of living in a commune?
There is a
big
group of people that you can fall back on if you need
help.
It can help the people living in communes financially because that shared
income
can be
shared
out to use for things like food and bills.
Any jobs that need to be done can be
shared
between the people living in the commune which can save them
time.
What are the issues of living in a commune?
There isn't a lot of
space
because of how many people are
living
in the commune.
It would be easier for things to get
lost
or
misplaced
because there are so many people living there.
It gives people living there less
privacy
because of the
limited
amount of space that they have.
