Survey: Boomers Want Single Level, Energy-Efficient Homes in the Suburbs.

Newest NAHB survey results, reported by Building Online. Americans who are 55+ cite preference for suburban living, single-story homes and amenities that include high-speed Internet access.

While the report states that boomers “don’t consider ‘universal’ design a priority,” we would bet that such design principles are actually welcomed and expected, although vain boomers wouldn’t be caught dead asking for them.
