Valrico, FL, an outer suburb of Tampa, FL, is overall quite senior-friendly, with one large exception: it lacks decent, affordable and reliable public transportation. Most stores and other businesses are happy to accommodate seniors, but many seniors don't have transportation options in order to avail themselves of them. Some seniors are fortunate enough to have family and/or friends to pick up the slack but for others, shipping, dining out and other excursions can be a logistic impossibility.
