Community

AARP's vision is a society in which all people live with dignity and purpose, and fulfill their goals and dreams. AARP Michigan is leading that charge in Michigan, investing in initiatives that make communities safer, more inclusive and better equipped to help people age in place with dignity and independence.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, by 2034 the nation will have more people age 65 or older than under 18. By 2060, nearly 1 in 4 people in the United States will be at least 65 years old. Those aren't just fun facts. They are a wake-up call for communities to start planning for a future where aging well is the norm, not the exception.
Rising housing costs and inflation have hit Michigan families hard in recent years, especially older adults with low or moderate incomes. According to a recent AARP study, 82 percent of adults 45 and older are concerned that increasing property taxes would impact their ability to remain in their home as they age.
AARP Michigan believes that when the places where we live are better able to support people of all ages, improving the quality of life for the very young, the very old, and everyone in between, everyone wins.
Learning a new language. Building a birdhouse in a woodworking class. Improving public speaking skills. Doing yoga while researching the history of the practice. These are just a few of the interests individuals who consider themselves "lifelong learners" have.
Six communities across Michigan are getting a boost in their work to become more livable for residents of all ages.
