- Abstract
As the size and diversity of the older segment of our population grows, they will need increased assistance in planning for and choosing appropriate housing from the array of options offered in the marketplace. This national survey of people age 55 and older indicates interest in retirement community housing among all socioeconomic groups, but especially among women and better-educated seniors. Facilities that offer access to medical services, transportation, and shopping while providing housekeeping and personal care services along with social activities will appeal to these consumers.
