Working Caregiver- Age at Home

It's a known fact that most seniors want to stay home even as they get older. We'd rather live out our lives at home.

 Americans are living longer. Aging experts across the country are discussing how to address the rapidly growing senior adult population, who by 2030 will number close to 70 million.  And contrary to popular belief, most people don't retire to the beach or Florida. They want to remain in their neighborhoods and homes for as long as possible.  Since only a little more than 10 percent of the elderly live in nursing homes, assisted living, and other places created specifically for them, what happens to everyone else?  Some say other options may be to transform our neighborhoods into communities where the neighborhoods or apartment buildings where a majority of the residents are older than 65.

Additonal options are to stay in your home, in your home of over forty, fifty years. Many seniors have that option and many more!
