ABSTRACT
This chapter presents expressions of community within a church and a mosque in an eastside suburb. Empirical examples suggest that religious sameness is experienced as a stronger marker of community and neighbourship than co-habiting over time. While people may live close and share experiences of diversity, it appears more significant for a community to share religious affiliation. Using her empirical findings, Grung reflects on a possible relationship between culture, religion, and co-habiting. In addition, she asks a basic question: How to identify religious elements in existing ideas about neighbourship?
