Abstract

For the first time ever, Canadian seniors outnumber youth. In this article we examine the extend of current, and projected, aging in Ontario municipalities. We assess if, and to what extend, local governments have begun to plan for older adults. We find that senior dependency is expected to rise in every Ontario municipality. Small municipalities are particularly vulnerable as they are expected to experience the most severe aging and are least likely to have initiated community age-friendly planning.
