Guest: Sara Zeff Geber, Author Essential Retirement Planning for Solo Agers

In Colorado, 15% of adults over 65 are single—31% men and 55% women. While many boomers enjoy active, independent lifestyles, aging alone poses challenges, especially for the 27% without children. Lack of family support increases risks related to long-term care, isolation, and loneliness, which can negatively impact health.

Mile High Magazine takes a look at the issues and people shaping Colorado. Presented by the public affairs department of Bonneville Denver.
