“…These are known as "virtual CCCRs" and are different from the typical CCRC or senior housing development because these communities are formed naturally by migration patterns and are age-integrated with younger residents (Ivery 2010). Community initiatives, such as aging at home or naturally occurring retirement communities, provide household services, concierge services, as well as cultural and social activities, transportation, and meal assistance-all within the senior's home.…”
