You take what housing is available in Maine if you have been homeless. the part of Saco I live in is Age Unfriendly. Why? Because I do no live in the senior housing community in Saco that is close to public transportation or close to any stores. I am 62 - I can walk, but I will also have to put my legs up to reduce the swelling after walking. I also have and will continue to walk the 2 miles to the nearest bus stop. Walk along Route 1 in the street until I reach Scarborough to the bus stop at Pine Point Rd. Also stradeling 2 Counties where all my medical appointments are in Cumberland County not York County - so services are not always available for York County Seniors going into Cumberland County. I would do better walking to the train station and go into Boston for medical care - it would be cheaper and more readily available. If you live in Maine, services in Maine should be readily available for the Seniors regardless of where they live and their social-economical situation.
