What is it like to grow old in a city? That depends on a lot of things: health, wealth, friends, family, etc. But it also depends on the physical and technical infrastructure available. Unfortunately, many cities lack a proper infrastructure for the mobility-impaired, and many of the mobility technologies in use haven’t been updated in decades.Quality of life can be significantly increased by changes both big and small. In response, many cities are making improvements, and many companies are investing in clever new solutions to help. From traveling across the city, to improved mobility in one’s own home, new solutions for seniors and others are starting to appear.
