A Life-Course Perspective on Housing Expectations and Shifts in Late Midlife
This US study applies a life-course approach and retirement migration theory to develop a model of future housing expectations and actual moves for a random sample of men and women in late midlife.
Results suggest that late-midlife workers and retirees expect to age in place; expectations to live in highly supportive environments are uniformly low.
