We have a large population of retired citizens who come here mostly because our warm weather[ senior pts tend to get cold easily], medical facilities geared to Geriatric patients and there has been an elderly community here for many years. Especially Miami Beach. I was an RN until my retirement earlier this year but I'd like to maintain a sharp and updated mind;.
When something friendly that means you enjoy it, that's the same thing to people can make you happy but at same time it can make you unfriendly
everything you can think of

My neighborhood is very age friendly because it is quiet, there is also a community crime watch.
Everyone is family in the neighborhood. We all keep the community clean as much as possible and safe for the children.
quite close to everything you would need, grocery stores, restaurants, gyms, movie theaters, etc.
Different cultures
