According to the American Planning Association, by 2040, the proportion of people over the
age of 65 will top 20 percent. This population is having a significant effect on our livability
through their influence on the economy, environment, transportation, and healthcare.
Growth that supports a maturing population is good for people of all ages. We invite you to
join Smart Growth Partnership for our annual forum where we will host a lively discussion
with distinguished speakers from the public, private, community and non-profit perspectives
who will showcase how smart growth principles are creating smart, active, aging
communities. Planning in an age-friendly will support our largest growing population.
