Are there any newer approaches to senior living that people might wanna look into?

So, um, naturally occurring retirement communities, or NORCs, um, are often apartment buildings where people are aging together in place, and they help each other, and they might have a, a door person who can help a lot.

This happens, I think, a lot in New York City.

I think they're great and, and if you're thinking about where to move at age 75, this could certainly be an option.

The New York Times recently had an article about retirees moving to the city.

But I recently toured what looks like a great development.

It's called Opus in Newton, Massachusetts, which is developed by a nonprofit, and it's aimed at the middle market, the people who don't qualify for subsidized housing, subsidized senior housing, and can't afford the more expensive CCRCs.

... and are there any common misunderstandings about how special needs trusts work?
