If we are to leave a legacy to future generations, the homes we build now must, at the very least, attempt to use the latest sustainable energy and building technologies. Just being a bungalow townhouse does not make it appropriate for seniors. Before you purchase that ideal retirement home think of your long term needs. Good housing for seniors has features that allow for decreasing mobility and increasing frailty.
Good housing is affordable and kind to the environment.
Poor senior s housing works for you today, but not for tomorrow. It is kind to the environment.
