Excerpt from Problems of Rural Elderly Households in Powell County, Kentucky

Many of the problems that arise for the rural elderly today are closely associated with the composition of their households. For Americans in general, the household is the locus of decisions that affect the economic and overall well-being of all members. Frequently, incomes are pooled, members share arrangements for food and other living essentials, and financial and property assets are jointly owned. However, little effort has been directed toward understanding the nature of rural elderly households. Recognition of major differences in household composition is essential for developing solutions to problems facing the rural elderly.
