- Abstract
The article presents a study which aims to explore the impact of two social housing cooperative complexes on the quality of life of residents in Moncton and Fredericton, New Brunswick. It states that non-elderly singles were the main target of this affordable housing initiative whose quality of life were assessed using a mixed-methods strategy. It also notes various improvements in the quality of life of these residents including safe neighbourhood, self-confidence, and financial situation.
