Walkability - A Great Feature to Grow Old With I was raised in the city, where it was pretty much possible to walk anywhere. If you preferred, however, you could just as easily hop on a bus or a subway. It was never a problem. Public transportation ran on a regular schedule and traveled to every conceivable destination.  When I grew up and moved to the suburbs with my own family, it was only natural for me to try to replicate the lifestyle to which I had grown accustomed. I knew, instinctively, that a hub would make all of us happier as it is a center of activity and there is easy access from all different directions.These days, there are some new housing descriptions popping up in our vocabularies:  co-housing, villages, and pocket neighborhoods. Baby boomers are preparing for their se... 03/29/2011
