Growing Old Together In Northern Virginia: The Family, Homes, and Budgets our Region Needs as we Age

As of 2020, there are 310,000 adults aged 65 or above in Northern Virginia, an increase of 61 percent since 2021. This report investigates systemic issues of housing, budgeting, and long-term care that people over 65 in the region face, offering three framing questions of what roles the nonprofit sector, from foundations to community programs and others can play in addressing these critical issues:

1. 1. How do we make it easier to be a caregiver?
   2. How do we increase the supply and affordability of senior housing?
   3. How do we help individuals afford to age in place?

This research was presented at the 2023 Shape of the Region Conference: Aging in Northern Virginia.
