===== Definition ===== Age neighborhood segregation refers to the phenomenon where people of different age groups tend to live in separate neighborhoods or regions within a city or town. This can be due to various factors such as economic status, lifestyle preferences, access to amenities and services, and historical patterns of residential segregation. In some instances, older residents may prefer to live in quieter, more established neighborhoods with better access to healthcare facilities and amenities for retirees, while younger residents may gravitate towards vibrant, culturally rich neighborhoods with more entertainment options and opportunities for socializing. Age neighborhood segregation can have social and economic implications, as it can lead to disparities in access to resources and opportunities for different age groups. It can also impact community cohesion and social interactions, as people of different ages may have limited opportunities to interact and engage with one another in a segregated neighborhood. Efforts to promote intergenerational living and community integration can help to address age neighborhood segregation and create more inclusive and vibrant communities.
