What kind of senior living community do your parents want to live in? How about you? Aging in place is the most popular answer these days but not always the most practical or feasible. Most nursing homes, assisted living facilities, retirement homes, retirement communities are too institutional – not a place where I would want to live out the rest of my years. There are community alternatives, cohousing options and intentional communities gaining popularity. In Kanazawa, Japan, I found one such village called Share Kanazawa. As we think about issues of continuing care, it is critical that we think not only of the practical aspects of a senior community but also of the emotional value a home brings to a person. This is what Share Kanazawa does so well. After watching this video, you may want to move there (or figure out how to build one wherever you live!)
