Public Spaces for Seniors

Public spaces for seniors refer to parks, community centers, sidewalks, and other areas designed to be accessible and welcoming to older adults. These spaces consider the unique needs of seniors, such as mobility challenges and social engagement. Features may include benches, shaded areas, exercise equipment, walking paths, and safe crossings. The goal is to promote physical activity, social interaction, and overall well-being for older individuals, fostering inclusivity and community connection. Creating such spaces helps improve quality of life and encourages seniors to remain active participants in their neighborhoods.
