There is transportation via bus , train, commuter rail line. Elementary schools and High Schools. The community seems to be engaged with one another. Living is peaceful. I just moved to the area and love it as well as my children and pet dog.
No public transportation .
Theres alot of families and schools so to me its more of a family town.I don't k ow of any elderly friendly companies arpund holbrook.
In Holbrook Ma we have a wonderful Council on Ageing program. My husband works for the Council and works as a part time bus driver transporting the senior citizens to their doctor appointments and taking them shopping and driving them to any special activities that they may have planned.
I believe that Holbrook is age friendly. We have a Council on Aging that has health clinics such as blood pressure screenings and flu clinics. It offers classes such as knitting, exercise, and stretching. It offers transportation to go to doctors appointments and shopping stores for elders that do not have cars or can no longer drive. They offer bingo and movies for socializing. I like that they offer Farmer's Market coupons so those that can not afford fresh fruit and vegetables can have help obtaining nourishing food items. Also, there is affordable Elderly Housing.
For the younger generation there is a clean, safe outdoor park and and a new Junior/Senior High School was built recently.
