It's age friendly bcus there's all type of ages in my community and they all respect eachother
Care made for people that's need it is available
It's very age friendly because a lot of the same people have lived there for years and we all know each other . Also In my neighborhood it's a lot new college kids in a older neighborhood and we're still greeted and treated respectfully.
I say it's age friendly because most people are very respectful of the elderly and will lend a helping hand to them if they see they have a lot of groceries that need to be carried out, or see them struggling at a gas pump or struggling to walk into a Place business or if they see them having trouble finding something. Also a lot of restaurants offer senior citizens and businesses will offer a senior citizen discount. Bad because it's just so busy here. Too many young people too many cars out all the time. The stores are always crowded and some people don't care to assist an elderly in distress.
I do this kind of work for 10+ leaves including CNA for over many leave.
