You know he's talking about life in the US, so you know it's not safe, affordable and public housing. Hahaha. Honestly. The age limits are two-fold - in terms of tax burdens, as one commentor stated, and also because it seems like lots of old folks want to retire where there aren't screaming bratty kids. Not all old people enjoy the dream of sitting on the porch and yelling "Get off my lawn!" And many of those types are premium... and of course, often home to (or close to) medical facilities and other things old folks want to have nearby. Maybe they're cheaper than the cool parts of town, but certainly not cheaper than the normal suburbs where you have all-age neighbors. It's surely not a social service.
