How well do the places where we live support the wellbeing of older adults? The Canadian population is growing older and is reshaping the nation' s economic, social and cultural future. However, the built and social environments of many communities, neighborhoods and cities were not designed to help Canadians age well. Bringing together academic research, practitioner reflections and personal narratives from older adults across Canada, this cutting-edge text provides a rare spotlight on the local implications of aging in Canadian cities and communities. It explores employment, housing, transportation, cultural safety, health, planning and more, to provide a wide-ranging and comprehensive discussion of how to build supportive communities for Canadians of all ages.
