Throughout the town of Durango there are various activites that are age friendly from neighborhood trails to weekly social distanced gatherings near downtown. The overall livability is pricey but there is affordable housing throughout town.

Cost of living is quite high while wages are also fairly low. This creates a tough living situation for all ages. Elderly people have a great community in Durango. The Rec Center offers a great pickle-ball scene, there are several golf courses, and the outdoor actiities are endless. Fly fishing opportunities are abundant.
