George J. Hunt

Board Member

George Hunt has lived in East Palo Alto for more than 25 years. With a long-time interest in affordable and cooperative housing, he explored Co-Housing as an ownership model to use fewer resources and contribute to affordability. In the end, he found Co-Housing, in the Bay Area is not very affordable.

As an alternative, George helped design and build a multigenerational 13-person shared living space which achieves similar objectives.

George received a Masters degree in Education from Stanford, and taught High School Political Science and Electronics in Fremont for over 10 years. He obtained a Computer Science degree from Berkeley, and worked 10 years on personal computers for Hewlett Packard. After retirement, he volunteers as a networking consultant, for 3 years at the East Palo Alto Police Department, and now occasionally for the EPACANDO office.
