The Advantages of Aging in Place
Many Canadians want to stay independent and comfortable in their own homes for as long as possible — a concept known as aging in place. According to the Government of Canada, aging in place means having the health, social supports, and housing features that allow you to live safely and independently in your community.
Here’s why bungalows are so well-suited for aging in place:
- Accessibility today and tomorrow – A bungalow can adapt to changing mobility needs.
- Proximity to services – Many 55+ communities are located near health care, shopping, and recreation.
- Long-term affordability – Downsizing to a manageable home helps control future housing and maintenance costs.
- Peace of mind – Living in a supportive, age-restricted community reduces worry for both homeowners and their families.
By planning ahead and choosing a bungalow in a 55+ community, you’re taking control of your independence, dignity, and quality of life.
