Fund people to go to the new alignment research center/group house in Vermont, where rents are extremely low.
Just wanted to chime in here to make sure people are aware that there are many more group houses and Co-Living projects out there. From my knowledge, several of them still have quite some free spots or are lesser known.
Examples of the top of my head (who specialize in AI/longtermism/research) are Aurea in Berlin (Germany) and CEEALAR in Blackpool (UK). But I wouldn’t be surprised most are cause-agnostic, so if the main concern is cost-efficient living (which contributes to low-cost research), reaching out to any would be an option. :)
So while the concept isn’t new, maybe it could be beneficial to make people more aware that these options exist. Especially now as people affected by current situation might need more financial and communal support.

This is exactly what I was hoping to find, thank you!
Edited to add where I found some. :) Here is an example post about them: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/4zHWQNzCusaTfD7jz/ea-houses-live-or-stay-with-eas-around-the-world
