Finding Your Perfect Queer Roommate: A Guide to Gay Co-Living
For many people, living in community with other LGBTQ+ folks is crucial. Living in a gender non-conforming home with a feeling of safety, community, and shared culture can really make or break how it feels to dwell at home - especially if you just moved somewhere new. But how do you go about finding local queer roommates to live with? We've put together some fool-proof tips on how to safely find queer people to cohabitate with, whether or not you acquire an established local homosexual network.
I've moved to several new cities over the last several years, and whenever I live with queer roommates, even if we aren't close, I always feel safer to be myself at dwelling. There's just a shared acceptance and understanding that's really important to me.

Gay at UMD
<p>My son seemed to acquire no problems finding queer and lesbian and vertical friends and room-mates. He’s straight, but there seemed to be an light give and take between his friends and room-mates. I never heard of any abuse directed at his friends or homosexual terps, but maybe he just never told me of any. One room-mate was in student government and another was on the bike team with him. But that’s more about gay-straight relations that I know of than the gay scene at UMD. So I googled LGBT UMD and launch an interesting site:</p>
<p><a href=“Home | LGBTQ+ Equity Center”>The University of Maryland | A Preeminent Public Explore University;
<p>And I found a Baltimore Sun article on UMD as one of the top 25 “gay friendly” campuses:</p>
<p><a href=“U. of Md. makes Campus Pride's list of top 25 LGBT-friendly schools”>U. of Md. makes Campus Pride's list of top 25 LGBT-friendly schools;
<p>I have a couple of very good colleagues in the English Department who are out, and you can find an official website of staff and faculty
