Adult Children of Elder Care Residents

For many elderly people, their adult children are key decision makers and financial supporters in the decision to enter senior housing. This map identifies the location and density of these adult children (age 50-64 making $75,000 per year) for a potential site in Randallstown, MD. Each census block group area is symbolized to show the quantity (colors) and density (dots) of these decision makers.

Elder Care Marketplace

With a rapidly aging population in many areas of the country, elder care housing is growing in importance. As new facilities are evaluated for their viability in the market, it is important to understand how adequately that market is already being served. This map shows the existing elder care marketplace within a three mile radius of a potential site.

Prospective Residents for Elder Care Housing

The population aged 75 and older is the fastest growing demographic in the country. Following in the wake of that trend is a rapidly growing elder care services industry.
