transportation is limited on weekends especially on Sundays when many seniors would like to attend church, not a lot of affordable companion programs
Lots of fun events for kids adults families
Very age friendly so much to do for everyone. Walking paths, parks, movies, bowing lots of stuff to do for all ages.
It is age friendly simply because of all the opportunities afforded to those over fifty
