Representation Summary:
Suggests that large housing sites are more able to accommodate housing for older people. In
reality town centre or edge of centre sites are much more suitable for older people's housing, being closer to more facilties. The larger size of buildings which usually accommodate older people's housing are also much easier architecturally to accommodate in town centres rather than in lowdensity low-rise suburban locations.
