When in mind of the elderly or the young, San Benito, Texas is a great place. Transportation buses run through the streets of this small city. Riding with the elderly with care. Living here is so relaxing and apartments are available for the elderly. There are adult engagement centers that allow the age friendly community to participate in activities such as exercises, arts and crafts, dancing and trips to the grocery store. What fun.
