This is not an age friendly community. Shopping and restaurants are quite a distance from actual living areas, so a person would need transportation if they do not drive themselves.
I have only lived here a short time but in my opinion it does not seem to be age friendly. If you don't or can't drive you are pretty much home bound.
I do not believe this city is age friendly. There is no public transportation. To shop they would need to either have a car or have someone take them to the grocery store or general shopping. There are no restaurants nearby, but there are parks and trails.
