How cities shape healthy aging and social ties
Original: How urban environments shape healthy aging and social connection
Researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology are examining how urban design influences healthy aging and social connection among older residents. Their work looks at how features of the built environment — walkability, public space and neighborhood layout — affect wellbeing and social contact in later life, informing how cities can better support aging populations.
Why now: Aging urban populations are making city design for older residents an increasingly urgent policy topic.
