As recently featured in the Atlanta Business Chronicle, the Atlanta Regional Commission’s Lifelong Communities initiative is focused on creating communities that promote healthy living for all ages. Lifelong Communities have more housing options, greater access to health services, expanded transportation options and community designs that promote healthy living. The Peachtree Hills neighborhood was recently selected as a Lifelong Communities case study by the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) for the many benefits it already offers area residents as well as the potential enhancement of housing options, lifestyle choices and health services that Peachtree Hills Place can provide for this community. Isakson Living has been very active in support of the ARC effort.
In August the Peachtree Hills neighborhood conducted a community assessment to see how it stacked up. A few areas of note that received high marks were:
- Mobility and Accessibility
- Overall Housing Choices (Peachtree Hills Placeis of course a part of the community.)
- Opportunities for Social Interaction
- Access to Services in the Area
A copy of the survey can be found at our web site www.peachtreehillsplace.com or at http://www.atlantaregional.com/aging-resources/lifelong-communities-llc/lifelong-communities-emerging-sites/peachtree-hills as well as the article which ran Nov. 4 – 10 in the Atlanta Business Chronicle.
