Abstract:

Planners have long speculated on the effects of an aging population on land use patterns. The problems of recycling suburban communities have also become more urgent. Due to demographic changes and federal cuts, social services are being increasingly kept from suburbs. This article illustrates innovative ways to utilize these resources.

Abstract:

North Carolina is experiencing major changes in its age structure as life expectancies have increased, birth rates decreased, and population migration occurred. Between 1980 and 2010, the number of North Carolina residents sixty-five and older is expected to dramatically increase. This report examined cause-specific mortality rates for three elderly age groups by race and sex.
