Age friendly cities commitment to maintaining an infrastructure that makes life more agreeable for seniors. This would include such things as benches at bus stops and signs with larger letters.  It also includes opportunities for part-tie employment, the availability of senior housing and transportation. Small things can make a large difference in the ability of seniors to "age in place."

  3. People often spend their lives in the workforce dreaming about the day they get to finally retire. The trouble is that many people find it difficult adjusting to the pace of life after a career.
