Age Friendly Community Surveys

In late 2018, AARP Indiana and Purdue University Extension conducted a survey of older residents in Fort Wayne and Indianapolis to gain a better understanding of how older residents’ needs in areas such as housing, transportation, health care and social inclusion were being addressed by the cities.

The data that was collected and linked below, can help the cities develop community-wide actions plans as the cities work towards becoming more age-friendly communities.
