Q: What else should we know about the changing face of retirement communities? Brown: In the future, retirement com- munities will integrate and blend in with the local community and amenities provided will be open to the public. These up-and-coming seniors will also be looking for communities that feel like a town center with walkable, on- site amenities such as wellness centers, multi- ple dining choices, a market/convenience store, a coffee shop, a bank, and perhaps a theater. Another approach will be to integrate senior communities into existing urban centers where those amenities already exist. We foresee a time when many will be mul- tigenerational communities. Memory care services are being added at a rapid rate. As Boomers have always been a very socially responsible group with many environmental advocates, sustainability and green build- ing will be integrated and marketed in more communities. Lastly, these communities will have enhanced amenities that support life-long health for the mind and body such as improved fitness centers, bike and nature trails, classrooms for continuing education, and community gardens. Today's seniors are very interested in retaining their vitality and fitness and they expect to find environments that support these demands. n Q&A: Boomers
