Livable New York: Your Guide to Age Friendly Communities

The New York State Office for the Aging, with assistance from Livable New York's affiliate partners, is pleased to offer a new initiative to advance the efforts of the State's communities to implement model housing, transit, and mobility alternatives, and to institute new and innovative building and community designs, energy ideas, and creative planning and zoning strategies.

New York's communities are changing significantly. The products and activities of Livable New York are intended to help local leaders, residents, officials, and organizations come together to create neighborhoods that reflect the evolving needs and preferences of all their residents.
