Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the different problems and needs of elderly households in Powell County, Kentucky. The author analyzes three key problem areas: income and assets, transportation, and housing. The author compared and contrasted the findings between different household typesâ"one-person, married couples, mixed households, and extended householdsâ"to demonstrate how the composition of the household affects the well-being of older people. Specifically, the author found that many elderly households had incomes below the national poverty level, and that transportation was less important than the need for home repairs. The book provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by elderly households and highlights the need for targeted interventions to improve their quality of life.
