< i > Isolation and Loneliness in the Elderly

Housing

If loneliness is due to physical isolation and/or decreased mobility, the person could consider moving to a community specifically for retired people
These apartment complexes or housing communities generally have planned activities and easier access to others who are in similar situations
Suggesting that someone move has to be weighed against the impact of losing familiar surroundings and perhaps moving away from family
