Development Trends: The Evolution of the Small House Concept

As Boomers transition into retirement and contemplate how to maintain a vibrant active lifestyle, evaluating housing options becomes part of the discussion. There is a greater desire to age in place, which challenges developers and senior living providers to offer an enticing alternative that is attractive to this market.
