I live in a apartment complex and my neighbors are friendly and are different ages. We have community events through out the year.
Columbus ms is called the friendly city
We have people of all ages that live in my community and we all look out for each other regardless of age or race.
I don't think that this city is age friendly,because it is many jobs here,they cancel events the community look forward to, they don't have any public transportation. The neighborhood that I live is peaceful it consists of mostly elderly people.

The city is known to be called the "friendly city." I believe there is more to be done to own that name such as more working opportunities, more transportation (uber, cab, or buses) and the school district is attempting to better school education! The community engagement is fair, but with many civilians living in the city the engagement should be excellent.
