Elderburbia: aging with a sense of purpose in America, written by the IIDC's own Phil Stafford, is now on the CeDIR library shelves. The book examines how local environments shape the aging experience and outlines what makes a community elder-friendly. Elderburbia is especially useful to social workers, aging individuals and city planners looking to prepare for aging populations.
Also check out Dr. Stafford's blog, "Phil's Adventures in Elderburbia," http://agingindiana.wordpress.com/, for more information on elder-friendly communities.
