Resilient communities design for the full range of human life stages: young families with children, working adults, elders, people with disabilities. Age-integrated communities are more resilient than those designed for a single demographic — the relationship between generations provides social capital that supports community longevity.
Universal design principles — wider doorways, zero-step entrances, accessible bathrooms, lever hardware — should be standard in regenerative community buildings. An elder who can no longer climb stairs or a community member recovering from injury should be able to remain in their home and access all community facilities. Building for accessibility from the start costs far less than retrofitting later.
