Our rapidly aging population both nationally and locally demands a fundamental shift in planning to minimize the economic, social, and health challenges that will otherwise overwhelm communities. Many communities, however, have had difficulty bringing planners and aging professionals together to plan livable communities for all ages. This presentation will explore how the design of housing and neighborhoods impact the livability of a community and what can be done at a local level to create resilient communities for an aging population.
