Nationally, through 2027, 11,000 to 12,000 people a day are turning 65. We’re in the peak of baby boomers’ 65th birthdays! Let's challenge ourselves to become more age-friendly! #olderadults or #olderpeople not #seniors."

We're all aging, but take notice that 25% of Monroe County NY residents are 60 or older for the 1st time in history. It's a demographic shift requiring attention. @nysenate.bsky.social @nysfocus.bsky.social @thisisroc.bsky.social @wxxirochester.bsky.social
