This book provides new and original insight on the senior living housing needs in Poland. It focuses on housing needs of the 60-74 age group that are generally more mobile and not in need of services offered in care homes. The book not only shows that seniors prefer to live independently as long as possible, but also touches upon their primary conditions for this, such as properties near goods, services and social networks, in modern buildings that have common amenities that meet their needs as they age. The book also discusses the transformation of economic, social and cultural changes leading to the creation of a new housing options for younger seniors living in many cities in Poland. With the book concluding that there is need for more diverse housing choice for senior living than is currently available, it provides an interesting read for academics, professionals and local, regional and national social service agencies that work with seniors.
