Series C Funded Community and Lifestyle Startups

Cityblock Health raised the largest round at $192M (Brooklyn, March 2021), well above the rest of the set. The next largest are Cohabs at $73M (Brussels, November 2022) and Vestwell at $70M (New York, July 2021). Life House and Papa each closed $60M rounds in late 2021.

California cities account for nine of the 20 companies, spread across Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Pasadena, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Mountain View. New York — including Brooklyn — contributes five companies: Diana Health, Chapter, Life House, Vestwell, and Cityblock Health. Miami appears twice, with both Brave Health and Papa headquartered there.

Ten of the 20 rounds closed in 2021, making it the most active year in this dataset. Six more followed in 2022. There was then a multi-year gap before Petfolk (October 2024) and Chapter (May 2024) closed rounds, with Midi Health and Diana Health resuming activity in mid-to-late 2025.

Co-living and flexible housing platforms — Zeus Living, Canvas, Life House, and Cohabs — account for four companies. Senior and elder-adjacent services make up another cluster: Papa, Chapter, Cityblock Health, and Household Capital. Women's and family health appears in Midi Health, Diana Health, and Willow, while pet-related services are represented by Petfolk and Scratchpay.

Two of the 20 are non-U.S.: Cohabs (Brussels, Belgium), which raised $73M in November 2022, and Household Capital (Melbourne, Australia), which raised $38M in October 2022. Both rounds closed within four weeks of each other.

Sixteen of the 20 rounds fall between $25M and $60M. The $10M Brightline round (Palo Alto, 2022) is the smallest, and Cityblock Health's $192M is a clear outlier. The $50M figure appears four times — Midi Health, Chapter, GOQii, and Canvas — making it the single most common round size in the dataset.
