Beaverton has very good public transportation, both in-town and connected to the broader Portland area. Reasonable respect is given to seniors, and most businesses give some Senior discount. Health care is excellent, including two major hospitals and numerous specialty clinics. There is a very active Senior Center, and many Senior living facilities.
