Gen X Seeks Homes to Age in Place With Customizations for Healthier, Multi-Generational Living

Gen Xers are starting to think about where they will retire and want homes they can age in rather than move later.

Many Gen Xers have the resources to customize homes for aging with features like showers, higher toilets, and smart home technology.

Some Gen Xers are buying bigger homes to accommodate multigenerational living as they care for kids, parents, and grandchildren.

Health, wellness and proximity to amenities like trails, tennis courts, and pools are priorities for Gen X retirement homes.

The competitive housing market is motivating Gen Xers to purchase retirement homes now rather than later when prices may be higher.
