What it's like getting old in a City that worships youth...

This is the first episode in a 20-part series on what it's like to age in Portland.  In this opener, we give an overview of the entire series.   This episode includes many of the key quotes from some of the roughly 40 interviews we conducted.  Our guests include geriatric doctors, geriatricians and community leaders.  We focus on sources in Portland but we have reached out to experts in other locations, including the Centers for Disease Control and the MIT AgeLab.
