Cedar Rock Cooperative (CRC)
Cedar Rock Cooperative is located at 703 & 705 North Greensboro Street, Carrboro. Cedar Rock is a Limited Equity Cooperative. There are 6 units which each have a monthly carrying charge of $858; each has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, passive solar windows, and washer/dryer/dishwasher. Our outdoor commons space includes community gardens, a tool shed, a garden shed, rainwater catchment systems, and a fire pit for communal bonfires.
CRC is an intentional, dweller-controlled, participation driven community. We are LGBTQ inclusive – some of our residents are from the LGBTQ community, and we expect new community members to share our value of respecting and welcoming all.

- A minimum 1-year lease commitment;
- An eligible low-income housing income of less than $30,840/year (demonstrated with tax forms) for a single individual with no dependents. We use the Durham-Chapel Hill, NC HUD Metro FMR Area 60% Limits to determine eligibility. Please see page 2 for our metro area specific limits.
Available Rooms at the CRC
If you are interested in applying, would have time to participate in the co-op, and meet the residency requirements, please send us an application. Even if there are not current openings, we keep applications on file. There are two ways to rent:
- As a single member, occupying 1 bedroom as a non-lease holding resident;
- As a leaseholder, with two non-lease holding residents or family members.
Renting a single room with an already existing resident, instead of a whole unit, does not require an investment in the property. Click WCHAApplicationfinal for a Doc file of our application, or WCHAApplicationfinalpdf for a PDF of our application. Please e-mail application to: crc.rcc@gmail.com.
