Mainz housing initiatives
DOOR TO DOOR (Upper Town)
Door to Door – Living Together e.V.
The aim of this group is to create a multi-generational house in the heart of Mainz's Oberstadt district, in a quiet residential area, which offers space for lively cohabitation – either as owner-occupied property or for rent. The communal areas will be places of encounter, characterized by tolerance and respect for all residents of the neighborhood.

WALLAUSTR. (Neustadt)
QUEER im Quartier e.V.
The group describes its central theme as follows: "Living fairly and accepting differences – there is plenty of room for individual lifestyles in this queer-oriented group, which is open to everyone. Self-determined living into old age and support from a strong community are just as much a part of the program as intergenerational living."
