This report looks at a US survey of older people, younger Millennials and Boomers to find out where they would want to live and why.
The survey showed:
- More than 70% of people over 50 wanted to stay in their neighbourhood and not move.
- 7 out of 10 city dwellers intended staying put ’til they were past 80.
- All generations want access to good healthcare
- 60% believe it will be easier to meet people in a city.
For more information about the suitability of US housing to meet these needs see this CityLab article.
