People of all ages live and work here. Lots of senior citizen housing, But also lots of schools, clubs (YMCA, Girls/Boys Club) in the area. Also Tufts University is nearby --> age-friendly to (younger) students and also to (older) staff/faculty. Lots of activities for mature adults (i.e., restaurants, etc.) Chevalier theatre features performers/speakers for all ages (i.e., Barney, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Robert DeNiro, Suze Orman).
