A moshav is a cooperative settlement consisting of independent small farms, or land farmed by the whole community with each family having its own house and garden.
A kibbutz is a communal farm or factory in Israel run collectively and dedicated to the principle that production work and domestic work are of equal value.

A kibbutz is a collective community of people who all live close together in their own "town". These are found in Israel. The word "kibbutz" is Hebrew for 'gathering' or 'clustering.' This should not be confused with a moshav, which is a similar Israeli town or settlement. A kibbutz, however, tends to be more collective and community-like than a moshav.

A Moshav is an Israeli type of communal living that is less socialist and communal than a Kibbutz, but is more communal than an ordinary city or town. This is very similar to the American concept of a "gated community". In a Moshav, most individuals own their homes and grounds individually, but are required to adhere to the norms of the community (such as what colors their houses can be painted, etc.). They also have access to common resources, such as playgrounds, swimming pools, and gyms.
