Aging? Then this story’s for you. And, guess what? We’re all aging.
In this episode, we visit two older women who became roommates to save money. But they’ve enjoyed the experience so much that now they want to start a movement in the Atlanta region. And it turns out this is happening around the country. It’s a national trend, called “Golden Girls” housing—like the old TV show.
In just 12 years, one in four of us will be 60 or older in metro Atlanta. And as our demographics shift along with the rest of the nation, we need to change how we think about building communities that work for everyone. This episode unpacks all of that.
