“It might seem pretty rare to find a house with an elevator, but chances are higher you might find one in Calgary these days.”

    This is yet another reason why we need proper “aging in place” infrastructure like small retirement communities right near where people live, so people can both stay in their community but also get more appropriate accommodations as they age. Not only that, but those retirement communities will free up plenty of housing for younger people who are struggling to find housing.

      I completely agree. The race to the bottom dollar is so exhausting. Housing should never have been used as a financial vehicle.
