My aging parents are building a home on a hill away from the city. They will have to drive to everything. They even are building it son they can walk around the home and get to their car without stairs.

I don't get it at all. When I'm old, I want to be in a city, bottom floor and walking distance to a grocery store, doctors and aerobics class.

A car is a terrible idea. I can't say much at this point though

Ok. I agree with you but I am getting old with limited funds and way out is cheaper. I don't get it. I feel efficiency wise a condo in a highrise should be the lowest cost thing per square feet. Im in the close suburbs now because of cost. Now if you parents are loaded then yeah. kinda dumb.
