Aging Matters
Outpriced and Overlooked Promo
Across the country, older adults are being priced out of the places they’ve called home. Rents are rising, affordable housing options are shrinking, and the safety net meant to protect aging Americans is failing. In this story, we meet older adults facing impossible housing costs — and the people trying to help — to understand how we got here, and why the solutions we have aren't enough.
