Aging in Boulder County

Let’s focus on seniors in our community for a moment. The Boulder County Area Agency on Aging released their report on Aging Trends in Boulder County. This report is a first step towards the 2020 Age Well Boulder County Strategic Plan. I thought I would highlight a few items from this fairly extensive report.

  1. Aging services providers see demand outpacing supply in certain areas. This goes along with the fact that our housing stock is not really designed for an aging population (ranch style/low maintenance).
  2. More than one in three older adults in Boulder County have problems maintaining their homes as they age.
  3. Demand for aging-related health, social, and supportive services will increase for 30 more years.
