I'd like to add another possible consideration for the future of TV: the need for a new and high quality health care system to address the aging population. Is it possible that the new development projects along with their planned locations will help to address this future need?
The population aged 85 and older is the fastest growing age group in the U.S., and it is projected to be nearly six times as large by 2050 as this age group was in 1990. A 65-year-old person can expect to live another 17 years, and those who live to age 85 have an average of 6 more years of life remaining. This rapid growth of the oldest-old population will have a major effect on the health care system. (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK232661/).
I am a 59 y.o. health care worker hoping to relocate and work/retire to TV in the next few years. I am thrilled to hear of the new Medical Village complex that will be developed in conjunction with the UF Health System. Is it possible that these new high-density developments will help to serve as alternatives to home ownership for older TVer's or help to attract high quality health care professionals in the short term as new medical services come on line?
I am one individual that is thrilled by the possibility of having a first rate health system in the same community that I wish to retire to as well as to be an individual that will also be able to contribute my knowledge and experience as a 25+ year health care worker coming from a top rated academic hospital system in the northeast U.S.
I wish to own a residence in TV someday and also share the concerns with how my future lifestyle will be impacted by high density living areas nearby.
Can someone help me to correlate whether these new developments are in close enough proximity to the current TV hospital and the future Medical Village complex? I am hoping that future needs for a first rate health system in TV helps to explain the recent developments that are occurring now?
