News18.com-Senior Living, Kids-Centric Homes: The Emerging Real Estate Opportunities in Specialised Housing
India’s real estate sector is evolving beyond traditional residential projects, with two promising segments — senior living and kid-centric housing. These markets, driven by changing demographics and lifestyle needs, offer developers new opportunities and provide residents with homes designed for their specific life stages.
Senior Living Communities
The demand for senior living in India is steadily increasing as societal shifts occur. Longer life expectancy, higher income levels, and a changing approach to retirement living are reshaping housing needs for the elderly. The senior population in India is projected to grow substantially, with 17.3 million Indians expected to be over 60 years old by 2026, and this figure is likely to jump to 21% of the population by 2050, per a United Nations Population Fund report.
