"Aging in place" is among the newer terms to be included along with
"senior citizen," "golden agers," and others in the lexicon of
gerontology. Since aging is a lifelong process and each of us
occupies three-dimensional space, we are, of course, always aging
in place, but two factors have caused aging in place to emerge as a
salient concern for gerontological policy makers. The first is the
explosive growth of homeownership after World War II, the other is
the perception that thousands of older people have been flowing
into nursing homes unnecessarily when they can and should remain in
their own home or apartment.
