Age friendly because I've live here over 20 yrs and it's a lot of elders not many kids
I would say any age is welcome here there's a lot of opportunities for a lot of people.
I'll Trust No One Ear by the suspect and I'm here to make money I'm putting this on

There at least 2 centers for elders to get together for social and entertainment events and daily programs. We have a lot of bus and other transportation. Many assisted living and caring giving facilities. Many caregiving facilities where prospective residents can make their choice of where to live either temporarily or for their duration. A good community with much going on for all elders and all people.
