The demography of the planet has surpassed the 7 billion people last October 2011, and life expectancy of the population is increasing: approximately 82 years in France for 2011, both sexes included. People live older: increased longevity of the elderly (due to the medicine progress), and lower birth rates.
In this context, and related to the previous research on the large scale territory Geneva-Bellegarde, I decided to ask myself about the issue of living for elderly people, in close relationship with their place in French society today.
