In many ways, this particular community is very age friendly with regard to transportation, residential homes and assisted care, resources for elders and retired individuals like senor centers, shopping, volunteer opportunities. However, I have applied to many jobs over the last five to six years and I find that that there does seem to be some discriminatory practices. I suppose many employers are seeking the younger and the brightest in the field. I have often felt frustrated when it comes to job seeking, or branching out from my traditional work environments.
