Aging Health in Urban Context

Aging health in an urban context refers to how older adults manage their health and well-being in city environments. Urban areas often provide unique challenges, such as access to healthcare, social support, and safe spaces for physical activity. Additionally, factors like pollution, noise, and limited green spaces can affect older people's health. However, cities also offer resources like community programs, public transportation, and social networks that can improve quality of life. Understanding these dynamics helps in creating healthier, more supportive urban spaces for an aging population.
