Vail Valley Home Magazine | A Home For The Future | August 2017

Dated: August 3, 2017 Aging mountain residents plan for easier living by downsizing and choosing main-floor suites. By Kimberly Nicoletti The nation's housing market is undergoing the largest group of retirees in its history. With nearly 10,000 people retiring every day, the specific home features they demand are changing the shape of architecture. As baby boomers move into their 50s, 60s and 70s, they want to remain active and live in mountain communities such as the Vail Valley, which ranks third in the nation for life expectancy, according to research published in May's Journal of the American Medical Association.

Study: Eagle County has third-highest life expectancy in nation

Dated: May 18, 2017 May 8, 2017 Summit County's life expectancy is the highest in the nation, according to a study published Monday (http://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2626194) in the Journal of the American Medical Association. In 2014, the latest year that data is available, Summit's expected longevity was 86.83 years. That narrowly edged out the neighboring ski country counties of Pitkin and Eagle, which came in at No. 2 and 3 nationwide, with life expectancies of 86.52 and 85.94, respectively. By comparison, the nation with the highest life expectancy in the world that same year, tiny Andorra in Europe's Pyrenees Mountains, came in at 84.8 years, followed by Iceland at 83.3. "Summit County has very high education, high income, high access to medical care, the people are physically active, obesity is lower than anywhere else — so you're doing it right," said Dr. Ali Mokdad, one of the study's co-authors. He is the head of U.S. research for the In
