As you may know, the population of the U.S. is experiencing an increase in the aging trend at the highest rate in history. In the United States, the proportion of the population aged >65 years is projected to increase from 12.4% in 2000 to 19.6% in 2030 (source: CDC). Baby boomers (born 1946 to 1964) are driving many industries, even in the midst of the worst economic climate in decades. Homes are being built to be affordable, but another consideration becomes important – a home must be versatile in its features based on the potential age of the occupants.
The real estate industry recognizes this trend and many builders, developers and brokers are starting to address the needs of buyers by marketing directly to the phase of life buyers may find themselves. Also, families are contracting. That is, more often aging family members live with their children or younger relatives and adult children return home to live with parents. More than ever, the design of a home must be mindful to its occupants (i.e. privacy, accessibility, convenience, energy efficiency) and the needs of future owners. New home construction is not only going green, it is going “age-appropriate.”
Early in the last century it was common to be born, live and die in the same home. But with increasing prosperity, nuclear families began to separate into homes that suited their individual tastes and needs.
But now, driven by an aging population and economics, “…the pendulum has swung again and families are looking at ways to make homes work for young families and aging parents. The need for accessible homes has built interest in universal design, which is the building of homes to accommodate people of varied mobility, dexterity, flexibility, age and height.
It was the third most popular housing trend last year, and more than 55 percent of builders, developers and home sales experts said universal design will grow in the coming decade, according to a survey conducted by the National Association of Home Builders. ” (Source: http://www.mysanantonio.com/business/real_estate/34902784.html )
