Abstract

Age-friendly community design is a crucial agenda globally. This study used a qualitative geographic information system (QGIS) approach and an interpretive descriptive orientation to analyze the spatially oriented exercise experiences of community-dwelling older adults living in a low-income neighborhood in Hong Kong. Fifteen community-dwelling older adults aged 62–88 years were involved in the study. Participants were found to make use of different places (i.e., footbridges and children's playgrounds) proximal to their home locations and create space for their habitual physical exercise routines. These interpretative results add a new dimension of understanding to the planning and design of age-friendly communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
