Thanks. I often wonder about this. My mother is in her nineties and refuses to move to be closer to me and my family because she has a supportive community around her (including people decades younger than her). It makes my life more difficult as I have to drop everything and drive if there's a medical scare, which there have been a few of in the last few years, but I completely get how the community structure around her in many ways makes her day-to-day life easier and more fulfilling.
