No community because people don't have the money to do it? Or they don't see the point?

yes! the first one! ive met and taught hundreds if not more people who would LOVE to do this if it werent for money and .. courage!
I have seen this everywhere and so my plan is to use co-creation and a very smart plan to create home for people with almost no buy in. They also wont own this as the land and property would be held in a not for profit trust. That way it prevents people buying and selling etc.. It would really be aimed at people who do want to get out of this system but just need to be a part of a group doing the same..
I managed to self build on my own, but it was too hard.. its a common theme! Doing these things as a harmonious group really makes all the difference. WHen ive done it like that the magic starts to happen. I had carpenters form UK coming to help me in India turning up with a suitcase full of tools.. ready to work for weeks on end for no pay.. It can really be an amazing thing when done with the right purpose and greater good kind of attitude.
I guess that would need to be in a less costly place, unlike the Western world? To build so many...
Well not really.. especially in Europe! Land can be VERY cheap if you choose the right place such as Spain, Portugal, Greece.. They are beautiful places..
