Livable Communities
In 2018, Massachusetts joined AARP's Age-Friendly Network. Since then and steadily, 114 communities in the Bay State have made the commitment to become more age-friendly- to the benefit of people of all ages.
Almost 100 Massachusetts communities now belong to the AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities, uniting local leaders, businesses and residents to improve their area's livability.
