According to demographic data from the Kem C Gardner Policy Center at the University of Utah, there was a staggering 43% increase in people aged 65 and over between 2010 and 2019. With 25% of the population In Davis County now over 50, the community’s need for people of age like Sadie’s Glenn is at an all-time high.
An important part of activity and socialization in healthy aging
Research shows that staying active as we grow up is not just a suggestion—it’s a necessity. Regular exercise helps reduce the risk of many health problems, including heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis and some types of cancer. But physical health is only one part of the problem. Socialization plays an equally important role, helping to prevent conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and depression, while lowering blood pressure and promoting overall health.
