Definition[edit | edit source]
Elderly residential segregation refers to the phenomenon where older adults tend to live in specific neighborhoods or communities with a high concentration of other older adults. This can be due to a variety of factors, including personal preference, financial constraints, accessibility to healthcare services, social connections, and cultural norms.
Some examples of elderly residential segregation include retirement communities, senior apartments, and assisted living facilities that cater specifically to older adults. In some cases, elderly residential segregation can lead to social isolation, limited access to resources and services, and lack of interaction with people of different age groups.
Efforts to address elderly residential segregation may involve promoting intergenerational housing options, creating age-friendly communities that cater to the needs of people of all ages, and implementing policies that promote diversity and inclusion in housing developments. Additionally, providing support services and amenities that encourage older adults to remain in their own homes and communities can help prevent residential segregation based on age.
