Statistics
The statistics are based on an online research study conducted by SB&A and Brooks Adams Research (BAR) in October of 2009 and presented at AAHSA in Chicago, IL in November of 2009. Four hundred nineteen people age 50+ participated and SB&A/BAR compared these select results with previous Generations studies the two companies had conducted. Note: Sample bias due to methodology; profile of CCRC buyers mirrors profile of senior Internet users, but not all CCRC buyers ARE Internet users. If you are interested in having SB&A/BAR present this presentation to your group, please contact us at sharon.brooks@SBandA.com.
