Community of Urbana-Champaign Cooperative Housing

Community of Urbana-Champaign Cooperative Housing, or COUCH, is an association of housing cooperatives in Urbana and Champaign, Illinois.

It is a member of North American Students of Cooperation (NASCO).

COUCH began in 1997 as an umbrella organization for the independent housing co-ops in the Champaign–Urbana area, but was also founded with the vision of creating a larger co-op community to advance co-oping, establish community, and achieve economies of scale within the co-op community.

On top of rent, each tenant pays a separate bill for utilities and food.
