I plan to be retired in 2025 …I’m not going into one of these places but if I did I would not view it as any different than any other apartment complex.

You lucky, lucky person. I want to retire too 
I feel like retirement would be a beginning, huge freedom, and so many options. Cant imagine being written off by society so much that even a game developer decides to exclude me.
That appeal text has really made me feel quite angry.

I am retired but still living at my home.
Have been checking out these places when submitting myself and also reviewing them.
Have been asked what I was doing at one and pleaded I was checking it out for the future …

Lol do niantic even know the age range of their player base?
I’m convinced they think this is a game for kids but kids hardly play it, most are adults and I think the average age of an active player would be middle aged (ie many both higher and lower ages)
I think a lot of kids play for a bit, long enough to get their parents hooked, and then they quit and their parents keep playing. Plus many people who got into pokémon originally as young people are now in their 30, 40s and 50s.

i did see an interview where the boss said a typical player was a 60yo grandma in Singapore …
Yet a lot of decisions taken are not good for their customers. A lot of the animations and vision tricks would appeal more to children who don’t play for long. So even so they are not catering to their own idea of the player base. My theory is that the game needs speeding up not prettyfying. I also think children stop playing because it is too complicated for kids.
I would put average pokemon go player age at around 35 maybe even 40.
